The combined weight of the boxes which is the product of the weight per box and the number of boxes is 14.5 ounces

Weight of each box = [tex] 3 \frac {1}{2} \: ounces [/tex]

Number of boxes = [tex] 4 \frac {1}{7} [/tex]

The combined weight will be the product of each single box and the Number of boxes ;

Weight of each box × Number of boxes

[tex] \frac {7}{2} \times \frac {29}{7} = \frac{203}{14}= 14 \frac{1}{2}[/tex]
