Tara had 1 5/8 pounds of dried nuts and ate 1/4 pounds of dried nuts each day for 6 days. She had 1/8 pounds of dried nuts left.
To find out how many pounds of dried nuts Tara had left after eating 1/4 pounds each day for 6 days, we first need to determine how many pounds she ate in total during those 6 days.
1/4 pound * 6 days = 1 1/2 pounds
Next, we subtract the amount she ate from the amount she started with to find out how many pounds she had left:
1 5/8 pounds - 1 1/2 pounds = 1/8 pounds
Therefore, Tara had 1/8 pounds of dried nuts left.
