Answer: 1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds}

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is provided in the attachment.

Given, Amount blueberry jelly beans= 1\dfrac{1}{4} pounds

=\dfrac{5}{4} pounds.

Amount lemon jelly beans = 2\dfrac{1}{3}pounds

=\dfrac{7}{2} pounds

Total jelly beans she bought = Amount blueberry jelly beans + Amount lemon jelly beans

=(\dfrac{5}{4}+\dfrac{7}{3}) pounds

=\frac{15+28}{12}\text{ pounds}\\\\=\dfrac{43}{12}\text{ pounds}

Amount of jelly beans she gave away = 1\dfrac{2}{3}=\dfrac{5}{3}\text{ pounds}

Amount of jelly beans she has left= Total jelly beans - Amount of jelly beans she gave away

=\dfrac{43}{12}-\dfrac{5}{3}\\\\=\dfrac{43-20}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{23}{12}\\\\=1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds}

She has left 1\dfrac{11}{12}\text{ pounds} of jelly beans.
