Converting the other way: pounds to ounces

ounces = pounds × 16. So 125 pounds is back to 2,000 ounces; one pound is 16 ounces. See the pounds to ounces table.

Quick estimate in your head

For a rough answer, multiply by about 0.06: 2,000 × 0.06 ≈ 120 lb, against the exact 125 lb (4.0% out). Good enough to check that a calculated result is sensible.

Common mistakes

The usual slip is using the factor the wrong way round. A ounce is smaller than a pound, so the number of pounds must come out smaller than the number of ounces. If your answer goes the other way, divide instead of multiplying.
