Answer:

4.5 ounces

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Total weight=14 ounces

1st kitten= 1/4pound = 4 ounces

2nd kitten= 5.5 ounces

3rd kitten = x ounces

Let the expression for the total weight be

4+5.5+x=14

solve for x

9.5+x=14

x= 14-9.5

x=4.5 ounces

Hence the 3rd kitten weighs 4.5 ounces
