Connie is putting the ingredients for her favorite oatmeal into a jar. The jar holds 2 1/2 cups of ingredients. So far she has added 1 2/3 cups of oats to the jar and 1/4 cup of raisins. How much room does Connie have left in the jar?

Answer 1

To find the total amount of ingredients Connie has in the jar, she added 1 2/3 cups of oats + 1/4 cup of raisins = <<1+2/3+1/4=2>>2 cups
The jar holds 2 1/2 cups - 2 cups = <<2+1/2-2=1/2>>1/2 cup filled space in the jar. Answer: \boxed{\frac{1}{2}}.
