1. Convert pounds to ounces:

* 1 pound = 16 ounces

* 8 pounds = 8 * 16 = 128 ounces

2. Add the remaining ounces:

* Total ounces = 128 ounces + 5 ounces = 133 ounces

3. Convert ounces to grams:

* 1 ounce = 28.35 grams

* 133 ounces = 133 * 28.35 = 3773.05 grams

Therefore, 8 pounds 5 ounces is equal to 3773.05 grams.
