Sam the butcher made sausage by grinding up 10 pounds of spicy meat mix, loading it into a tube casing, and creating a string of 40 sausage links. Then, she hung up the string of sausage links in her cooler.  Later that evening, Brandy, Sam’s Golden Retriever, broke into the cooler and ate 12 links of sausage.  After Brandy’s feast, how many ounces of sausage meat were contained in the remaining links?
There are 16 ounces in one pound, and thus in 10 pounds of meat mix there are 10*16=<<10*16=160>>160 ounces of sausage meat.
Thus, the 40 sausage links contained 160 ounces of meat, or 160/40=<<160/40=4>>4 ounces per link.
If Brandy ate 12 links, then 40-12=<<40-12=28>>28 links remained.
Thus, 28 remaining links, at 4 ounces per link, contained 28*4=<<28*4=112>>112 ounces of meat.
