Erin buys a bag of peanuts that weighs 
3/4 of a pound. Later that week, the bag is 2/3 full. How much does the bag of peanuts weigh now? Show your work

Sagot :


Original weight of bag = 3/4 pound

3/4 divided 3 = 1/4 pound (this is the weight of 1/3 bag of peanut)

So 2/3 full bag of peanuts will be 3/4 pound - 1/4 pound = 1/2 pound (this is the answer)
