Answer:
Laney gets two-thirds pounds of fudge.
Step-by-step explanation:
- Givens
- Margo made [tex]2\frac{2}{3}lb[/tex] of fudge.
- She gives [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of it to her friend Laney.
Remember that the word "of" means multiplication. So, if she gives a fourth "of" it, it means that we have to multiply
[tex]\frac{1}{4} \times 2\frac{2}{3}=\frac{1}{4} \times \frac{8}{3}=\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Margo gives two-thirds pounds of fudge to Laney. In other words, Laney gets two-thirds pounds of fudge.
