weight

my son gave me a UME scales and im having trouble reading it in weight it says my male weighs 1.530 the females 1.050 and 5the other 9.350 can anyone tell me what thisa is in lbs and ozs . man i hate numbers.

 

what kind of dogs do you have?

whats UME?

 

I was weighing yorkie pups 5 weeks old. UME is the brand of scales i have.

 

What unit of measurement is the scale using? Look at the literature and find out if it is weighing in pounds/ounces or kilograms or what!

It says lbs. ughhhhhhhhhhhhh.

 

So 1.530 pounds = 1 pound 8.5 ounces

1.050 pounds = 1 pound 0.8 ounces

9.350 pounds = 9 pounds 5.6 ounces


Does that help? (To get the ounces, just multiply the decimal part of the number by 16, since there are 16 ounces in one pound.)

Oh tytytyty . i wrote last one wrong it was .935 sorry these are yrokies not elephants lol my bad.

 

.935 = about 15 ounces.

LOL, elephants. I figured that was the mommy or something. A 9-pound Yorkie pup would indeed be a bit odd.

Wouldnt it though. no my momma is 5.5 and the daddy was 5. This time can't wait to start using my own male. got to breed missy one more time with Pepper Bear then i can use BoBo..

 

Can yopu tell me how you figured the weigh out so i can next time thanks so much.

 

yea I was wondering with the 9lb one and the others so small if the scales switched units on you!
But it is easy as Jamiya said take the decimal and multiply times 16
for example I weigh 105.6 (in dream land) 105 stays the same and then you multiply .6*16 = 9.6 sso I weigh 105& 9.6 ounces, Does that makes sense?
