Solution
Sure, let's address each of your questions step by step:
---
**f. Converting Grams to Ounces**
*A nutritional label says that a serving of mac and cheese is 117 grams. How many ounces are in a serving? (Use \( 1 \mathrm{oz} = 28.35 \mathrm{~g} \))*
**Calculation:**
\[
\text{Ounces} = \frac{\text{Grams}}{28.35} = \frac{117 \, \text{g}}{28.35 \, \text{g/oz}} \approx 4.13 \, \text{oz}
\]
**Answer:**
A 117-gram serving is approximately **4.13 ounces**.

**g. Converting Height from Feet and Inches to Meters**
*What is the height in meters of a person who is \( 5^{\prime} 6.5^{\prime \prime} \) tall? (Use \( 1 \mathrm{ft}=0.3048 \mathrm{~m} \))*
**Calculation:**
1. **Convert Feet to Meters:**
\[
5 \, \text{ft} \times 0.3048 \, \text{m/ft} = 1.524 \, \text{m}
\]
2. **Convert Inches to Meters:**
- First, convert inches to feet:
\[
6.5 \, \text{in} \times \frac{1 \, \text{ft}}{12 \, \text{in}} = 0.5417 \, \text{ft}
\]
- Then, convert to meters:
\[
0.5417 \, \text{ft} \times 0.3048 \, \text{m/ft} \approx 0.1651 \, \text{m}
\]
3. **Total Height in Meters:**
\[
1.524 \, \text{m} + 0.1651 \, \text{m} \approx 1.6891 \, \text{m}
\]
**Answer:**
A person who is 5 feet 6.5 inches tall is approximately **1.69 meters** tall.

**h. Calculating Mass in Pounds and Kilograms**
*What is your approximate mass in lb-mass and in kg? (Use \( 1 \mathrm{~lb} = 0.453592 \mathrm{~kg} \))*
**Note:**
To calculate your mass in pounds (lb-mass) and kilograms (kg), you'll need to provide your weight. Here's how you can perform the conversion once you have your weight:
1. **From Kilograms to Pounds:**
\[
\text{Pounds} = \frac{\text{Kilograms}}{0.453592}
\]
2. **From Pounds to Kilograms:**
\[
\text{Kilograms} = \text{Pounds} \times 0.453592
\]
**Example:**
If you weigh **70 kg**:
\[
\text{Pounds} = \frac{70}{0.453592} \approx 154.32 \, \text{lb}
\]
---
**i. Calculating Height in Feet-Inches and Meters**
*What is your approximate height in ft-in and in m?*
**Note:**
To convert your height to feet and inches or meters, you'll need to provide your height measurements. Here's how you can perform the conversions:
1. **From Meters to Feet-Inches:**
- **Feet:**
\[
\text{Feet} = \left\lfloor \frac{\text{Meters}}{0.3048} \right\rfloor
\]
- **Inches:**
\[
\text{Inches} = \left( \frac{\text{Meters}}{0.3048} - \text{Feet} \right) \times 12
\]
2. **From Feet-Inches to Meters:**
\[
\text{Meters} = (\text{Feet} \times 0.3048) + (\text{Inches} \times 0.0254)
\]
**Example:**
If you are **1.75 meters** tall:
\[
\text{Feet} = \left\lfloor \frac{1.75}{0.3048} \right\rfloor = 5 \, \text{ft}
\]
\[
\text{Inches} = (5.7415 - 5) \times 12 \approx 8.898 \, \text{in}
\]
So, approximately **5 feet 9 inches**.
---
**Additional Note:**
It seems like there might be a typo or incomplete part in your question:
- **lb-mass \( \square \mathrm{mg} \):**
If you're looking to convert mass from pounds to milligrams (mg), here's how:
\[
1 \, \text{lb} = 453,592 \, \text{mg}
\]
**Example:**
If you have **2 lb**:
\[
2 \, \text{lb} \times 453,592 \, \text{mg/lb} = 907,184 \, \text{mg}
\]
