Tara had 1 5/8 pounds of dried nuts. She ate 1/4 pound of dried nuts each day for 6 days.

To find out how many pounds of dried nuts Tara had left after 6 days, we need to subtract the total amount of nuts she ate from the initial amount she had.

Total amount Tara ate in 6 days = 1/4 pound/day x 6 days = 1.5 pounds

Amount of dried nuts Tara had left after 6 days = 1 5/8 pounds - 1.5 pounds = 1/8 pound

Therefore, Tara had 1/8 pound of dried nuts left after 6 days.
