Answer:

She will put 2/3 pound of nuts at each table.

Explanation:

Given:

Shelby has a 4 pound of mixed nuts.

She wants to put 1/6 of the nuts at each of the 6 tables at a fundraiser.

Now, to get the pound of nuts she will put at each table:

1/6 of the 4 pound of nuts.


(1)/(6) of4


=(1)/(6) * 4


=(4)/(6)


=(2)/(3)

Therefore, she will put 2/3 pound of nuts at each table.
