11 1/3 since sunday’s total lemonade sold is 10 2/3 + 3 1/3 = 14 you subtract 2 2/3 from 14 which equals 11 1/3

Answer:

11 1/3 gallons of lemonade was sold on Monday

Explanation:

lemonade sold on Sunday = 10 2/3 + 3 1/3

=10 +3 + (2/3+1/3) = 13 + (2+1)/3

= 13 + (3/3)

= 13 + 1 = 14 gallons

Lemonade sold on Monday = 14- 2 2/3

= 14 - 8/3


=(14*3)/(1*3)-(8)/(3)\\\\=(42)/(3)-(8)/(3)\\\\=(42-8)/(3)\\\\=(34)/(3)\\\\=11(1)/(3)
