Let’s go through each item one by one and think about what makes sense for its weight.

We know:
- 1 ounce (oz) is about the weight of a slice of bread → very light.
- 1 pound (lb) is about the weight of a can of vegetables → heavier than an ounce.
- There are 16 ounces in 1 pound → so pounds are much bigger units.

Now let’s look at each object:

---

1) Dresser
A dresser is a big piece of furniture with drawers. It’s heavy!
Options:
A. 150 pounds → that sounds right for a wooden dresser.
B. 30 pounds → too light — maybe a small table, not a dresser.
C. 10 ounces → way too light — that’s like a sandwich!
D. 3,000 ounces → Let’s check: 3,000 ÷ 16 = 187.5 pounds → possible, but 150 pounds is more typical for a medium dresser.
✔ Best answer: A. 150 pounds

2) Big Screen TV
Modern TVs are lighter than old ones, but still pretty heavy.
Options:
A. 40 pounds → reasonable for a large flat screen.
B. 2,000 pounds → WAY too heavy — that’s like a car!
C. 1.25 ounces → tiny — less than a cookie!
D. 160 ounces → 160 ÷ 16 = 10 pounds → too light for a “big screen” TV.
✔ Best answer: A. 40 pounds

3) Pen
A pen is very light — you barely feel it in your hand.
Options:
A. 16 ounces → that’s 1 pound — too heavy!
B. 10 pounds → no way — that’s like a bag of flour!
C. 0.2 ounces → yes! That’s super light — about the weight of a few paperclips.
D. 18 ounces → over 1 pound — nope.
✔ Best answer: C. 0.2 ounces

4) Lollipop
A lollipop on a stick — sweet treat, not heavy.

5) Phone
Smartphones are light — you hold them all day.

6) Recliner
A recliner chair — big, comfy, heavy furniture.
Options:
A. 70 pounds → possible for a small recliner.
B. 3 ounces → no — that’s a snack!
C. 2 pounds → too light — that’s like a laptop.
D. 5 ounces → even lighter — nope.
Wait — 70 pounds seems low? Actually, some lightweight recliners are around 70 lbs. But let’s compare to others…
Actually, many recliners are 80–150 lbs. But among the choices, only A is reasonable.
✔ Best answer: A. 70 pounds

*(Note: If this were a real-life situation, we might say 100+ lbs, but since 70 is the only plausible option here, we pick it.)*
