Thank you Ms. Sue!

You're welcome, Mark/Lindsey.

Please use the same name for your posts.

Please help me I don't know how to do it can you show the steps.

im cofused would it be 1\12

3/4x2/3=3x2=6 and 4x3=12=6/12 or 1/2

To find out how much the bag of peanuts weighs now, we'll need to calculate 2/3 of 3/4 of a pound.

First, let's find 2/3 of 3/4 by multiplying these fractions together:
2/3 * 3/4 = (2*3)/(3*4) = 6/12

Since 6/12 can be simplified further, let's simplify it by dividing both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 6:
6/12 = (6/6)/(12/6) = 1/2

So, the bag of peanuts now weighs 1/2 of a pound.

To summarize, the bag of peanuts weighs 1/2 pound now.
