Let's go through each of these conversions step-by-step.

### 1. Convert 38 lbs to oz
We know that:
\[
1 \text{ lb} = 16 \text{ oz}
\]
So, to convert 38 lbs to ounces:
\[
38 \text{ lbs} \times 16 \text{ oz/lb} = 608 \text{ oz}
\]
Thus:
\[
38 \text{ lbs} = 608 \text{ oz}
\]

### 2. Convert 12 tons to pounds
We know that:
\[
1 \text{ ton} = 2000 \text{ lbs}
\]
So, to convert 12 tons to pounds:
\[
12 \text{ tons} \times 2000 \text{ lbs/ton} = 24000 \text{ lbs}
\]
Thus:
\[
12 \text{ tons} = 24000 \text{ lbs}
\]

### 3. Convert 84,000 oz to tons (rounded to nearest 0.1 tons)
First, we’ll convert ounces to pounds, then pounds to tons.

#### Step 1: Convert ounces to pounds
Since:
\[
1 \text{ lb} = 16 \text{ oz}
\]
we have:
\[
84000 \text{ oz} \div 16 = 5250 \text{ lbs}
\]

#### Step 2: Convert pounds to tons
Since:
\[
1 \text{ ton} = 2000 \text{ lbs}
\]
we get:
\[
5250 \text{ lbs} \div 2000 = 2.625 \text{ tons}
\]
Rounding to the nearest 0.1 tons, we get:
\[
84,000 \text{ oz} \approx 2.6 \text{ tons}
\]

### Summary of Answers
1. \(38 \text{ lbs} = 608 \text{ oz}\)
2. \(12 \text{ tons} = 24000 \text{ lbs}\)
3. \(84,000 \text{ oz} \approx 2.6 \text{ tons}\)
