To find out how many ounces of skin are shed per week, you need to first convert the total amount of skin shed in pounds (40 pounds) to ounces, and then divide that by the number of weeks in 75 years. 1 pound is equal to 16 ounces. So, 40 pounds is equal to: 40 pounds * 16 ounces/pound = 640 ounces Now, you want to find out how many weeks are in 75 years. There are 52 weeks in a year, so in 75 years: 75 years * 52 weeks/year = 3,900 weeks Now, you can calculate the amount of skin shed per week: 640 ounces / 3,900 weeks = 0.1641 ounces per week (rounded to four decimal places) So, on average, a human sheds approximately 0.1641 ounces of skin per week over the course of 75 years.
