Hint:
In the given question, we have been asked how many ounces there are in a quarter of a pound. For solving this question, we are first going to convert a single standard unit to both of these measurements. Then we are just going to divide the two by making the given adjustments.

Complete Step by Step Solution:
We are going to convert kilogram to ounce and pound.
1kg=35.2oz
1kg=2.2lb
This means 2.2lb=35.2oz, or,
1lb=16oz
Hence, (1/4)lb=(16/4)oz=4oz

Thus, there are 4 ounces in a quarter of a pound.

Note:
We saw that if we have been given two different measurement units whose relation we do not know, we first convert a single standard unit to each of them. Then we just divide the two things with which we will get the direct relation of the two units and then we directly solve it.
