It can' be 11/12 because 5/6 nearly equals a whole number. Even when you add 1/3, the sum will be greater than one. The correct sum to 5/6 and 2/3 is 9/6, or reduced to 1 1/2.

Answer:

The weight of grapefruit is now 80 pound.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Let the x is the weight loss. The weight of grapefruit is 100 pounds and water is 92%. After evaporation water is 90%.

Thus the weight loss is:

$0.92\times100-0.90(100 - x) = x$

$92-90+0.90x=x$

$2=x-0.90x$

$2=0.1x$

$x=20$

Hence, the weight loss is 80 pounds.

Therefore, New weight is 100 - 20 = 80 pounds

The weight of grapefruit is now 80 pound.
