Answer:

3.13 kilograms used for the second cake

Explanation:

because the fractions have different denominators you have to multiply the denominators together to figure out what to change them too. but instead you can just figure out what the decimal for each is. 1/3 is 0.33, and 4/5 is 0.80. all you do is add these together to get 1.13. so now all you do is add 2+1.13 to get 3.13.
