Answer:

14.99 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the weight of the 2 cereal bags combined:

16.03 + 18.98

= 35.01

Subtract this from 50 to find the weight of the box, since 50 ounces is the combined weight of the box and the 2 cereal bags

50 - 35.01

= 14.99

So, the box weights 14.99 ounces
