Answer 1

6




I hope it helps you

Answer 2

6 ounces

Explanation:

since there are 16 ounces and 16 is a multiple of 8, we can say 1/8 = 2 ounces.

3/8 would be 6 ounces

1/4 is 2/8, so that would be 4 ounces

so, they used 5/8

6 + 4 = 10

16 - 10 = 6

so, there would end up being 6 ounces left, or 3/8.
