Divide by the denominator:

453/3 = 151

Multiply by the numerator:

151 x 2 = 302

Subtract this from the original number:

453 - 302 = 151

He has 151 sweets left

Hope This Helps You!

Good Luck (:

Have A Great Day ^-^

Answer:

151

Explanation:

Patricia Stole 2/3 off

So Joe has 1/3 left

Now we do 1/3 of 453 (Basically 453/3)

Which is 151
