Three friends ate a total of 8 pounds of fruit. Mario had 8 ounces of oranges, while Lydia ate 24 ounces of apples. Nicolai ate peaches. How many pounds of peaches did Nicolai eat? Let's think first. Chain of thought:
8 pounds of fruit = 128 ounces of fruit. Mario ate 8 ounces + Lydia ate 24 ounces = 8 + 24 = 32 ounces. Nicolai ate 128 - 32 = 96 ounces. 96 ounces = 6 pounds. Nicolai ate 6 pounds of peaches.
Therefore, the answer is 6.
