Answer:
5/9 pounds grapes were left.
Step-by-step explanation:
Alice bought grapes = [tex]\frac{8}{9}[/tex] of a pound
She ate = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] of a pound
To find out how many pounds were left, we subtract 1/3 from 8/9
[tex]\frac{8}{9}-\frac{1}{3}[/tex]
=[tex]\frac{8-3}{9}[/tex]
=[tex]\frac{5}{9}[/tex]
5/9 pounds grapes were left.
