To find out how much 1 1/3 bags of fertilizer weigh, you can multiply the weight of one bag by the given fraction.
The weight of one bag is 6 1/2 pounds. To find the weight of 1 1/3 bags, we multiply 6 1/2 by the fraction 1 1/3.
To multiply fractions, we multiply the numerators together, and then multiply the denominators together. Thus, (6 * 1) / (2 * 3).
The resulting calculation is (6 * 1) = 6 for the numerator, and (2 * 3) = 6 for the denominator. Therefore, 1 1/3 bags of fertilizer weigh 6/6 pounds, which is equal to 1 pound.
Since 1 pound is not listed among the answer choices, it appears that there might be an error in the question or answer choices. None of the provided options seems to be correct.
a third of a bag weighs at least 2 lb ... so 1 1/3 weighs at least 8
