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

Question

How many pounds of dried nuts Tara have left after 6 days?

Answer 1

To find out how many pounds of dried nuts Tara has left after 6 days, we first need to find out how many pounds of nuts she ate in total over the 6 days.

1/4 pound of nuts per day x 6 days = 1 1/2 pounds of nuts

Then we subtract the total amount she ate from the original amount she had:

1 5/8 pounds - 1 1/2 pounds = 1/8 pounds

So, Tara has 1/8 pounds of dried nuts left after 6 days.
