To convert pounds to ounces, we need to multiply the weight in pounds by 16. Since Angel weighs 18 1/2 pounds, we'll first convert the mixed number into an improper fraction. 18 1/2 is equal to 37/2. Now, multiply 37/2 by 16 to get the weight in ounces. 37/2 * 16 = 296 ounces. Therefore, Angel weighs 296 ounces.
