Calculation:
As per the given problem,
Consider the rate:

\frac{3 l b}{$ 1}

To convert pounds into ounces, multiply the rate by a conversion factor.
1 pound (lb) is equal to 16 Ounces(oz), so

\frac{16 o z}{1 l b} = 1

\frac{3 l b}{$ 1} = \frac{3 l b}{$ 1} \cdot \frac{16 o z}{1 l b}

[Multiply rate by conversion factor.]

= \frac{48 o z}{$ 1}

[Divide out common unit and simplify.]
Therefore,

\frac{1 l b}{$ 1} = \frac{48 o z}{$ 1}

Hence,
The equivalent rate of

\frac{3 l b}{$ 1} i s \frac{48 o z}{$ 1}

Step 1
Given information:
Consider the rate given in the question:

\frac{3 lb}{$ 1}

It is to be converted to ounces per dollar

1 (l b) = 16 (o z)

, so

\frac{16 oz}{1 lb} = 1

\frac{3 lb}{$ 1} = \frac{3}{1} \times \frac{16}{1}

= \frac{48 oz}{$ 1}

So,

\frac{3 lb}{$ 1} = \frac{48 oz}{$ 1}
