Erin byus a bag of peanuts that weighs three fourths of a pound. Later that week, the bag is two thirds full.how much does the bag of peanuts weigh now? Show your work.

Sagot :

Weight of peanuts in a full bag = ¾ pounds
Weight of the bag when it is 2/3 full
Then
1 full bag = ¾ pounds
2/3 full bag = [(3/4)*(2/3)                     
                   = ½ pounds

So the weight of the peanuts when the bag is two thirds full is ½ pounds.
