Question

Heidi has 6 pounds of tomatoes from her garden. She used 3/4 of all the tomatoes to make sauce and gave 2/3 of the rest of the tomatoes to her neighbor. How much ounces of tomatoes did Heidi give her neighbor?

Answer 1

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
