Answer: 15 & (1/3)

Step-by-step explanation:
So for this problem we are trying to find out what 2/3 of 23 pounds are. So we can set up a simple expression to find this as follows:

23 * (2/3) = 23 * 2 / 3
= 46 / 3
= 15 & (1/3)

So if Fiona received two thirds of 23 pounds of onions, she received 15 and 1/3 onions from Shrek.

Cheers.
