Corrina, this is the solution:

• Initial weight of the octopus = 5/6 kg

,

• Weight the octopus gained in two weeks = 3/10 kg

,

• Weight lost because of the sickness = 1/5 kg

In consequence, the current weight is:

5/6 + 3/10 - 1/5

Least commond denominator = 30

(25 + 9 - 6)/30 = 28/30

Simplifying:

• 14/15 kilograms is the current weight of the octopus
