This app can serve you as a pounds to ounces calculator, and vice versa — an ounces to pounds calculator. It adds up pounds and ounces and gives you a metric equivalent of mass.

How the pounds and ounces calculator works

The fields of the upper part of the lbs and oz calculator show equivalent weights expressed in different units. Input weight in one of them, and you'll get the weight in other units.

For example, if you need a pounds to ounces calculator, enter the number of pounds in the first field, and you'll get the result in the field below.

Otherwise, if you need an ounces to pounds calculator, enter the ounces first, and the calculator will determine the number of pounds.

Convert grams to pounds and ounces

The app also converts grams to pounds and ounces. If this is what you need, input grams in the fourth field of the pounds and ounces calculator. You'll find the equivalent pounds in the first field and the ounces in the second one.

If you need to do the grams to pounds and ounces conversion (e.g., 1000 g to 2 lb 3 oz), input the mass in grams, and you'll find the result in the third field.

The pounds to ounces calculator actually includes more units of mass. If you want to access them, click on the units. You'll be able to convert pounds to tons, drachms, atomic mass units, etc.

Add up pounds and ounces calculator

The bottom part of the tool is an add up pounds and ounces calculator. Here, you can enter two masses expressed in different units and get the sum in yet another unit. For example, if you'd like to add 3 pounds to 33 ounces, normally, you'd have to first convert ounces to pounds and ounces:

3 lb + 33 oz = ?

33 / 16 = 2 R 1 (we divided with a remainder)

33 oz = 2 lb 1 oz

And then, you could add the converted value:

3 lb + 2 lb 1 oz = 5 lb 1 oz

If you need to subtract a value, type the negative sign before the value you want to subtract. That works here, too! 🙂

You might want to give the pint to pound conveter a try, as it has a conversion for many routine items.
