Answer:
She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor
Step-by-step explanation:
How much did you use to make sauce
6 * 3/4 = 18/4 =9/2 = 4.5 lbs
That leaves 6-4.5 = 1.5 lbs
She give 2/3 of this to her neighbor
1.5 * 2/3
Changing the decimal to a fraction
3/2 * 2/3 = 1
She gives 1 pound to her neighbor, but we want it in ounces
16 ounces equals 1 pound
She gives 16 ounces to her neighbor
