Answers: how did u figure that out?

The first answer is wrong since 1.555 is way more than 2/3rds of 1.75. That would leave only .20 pounds left, which is much less than 1/3 of 1.75

1 3/4 =7/4
7/4*2/3 = (7*4) / (4*3)

so two thirds of 7/4ths is 14/12ths

so you ate 1.166 pounds

Buy yourself a new toothbrush...

approx. 1.555 lbs.

in math, "of" is multiply so .66 or 2/3 times/of 1 3/4 of .175 = 1.555 (repeating)

1and1/6

1 ? pounds equals 7/4 pounds of candy. Multiply 7/4 pounds time 2/3 to get 14/12 pounds of candy eaten - or 1 pound and 1/6 ounces of candy or 1.167 pounds of candy. And don't forget to add the cavity.
