  1. Convert to Improper Fraction: Atenea has 2(56)2\left(\frac{5}{6}\right) pounds of trail mix. Convert mixed number to improper fraction: 2(56)=(2×6+5)/6=(12+5)/6=1762\left(\frac{5}{6}\right) = \left(2 \times 6 + 5\right)/6 = \left(12 + 5\right)/6 = \frac{17}{6} pounds.
  2. Calculate Total Weight: She makes seven 13\frac{1}{3}-pound snack bags. Calculate total weight of snack bags: 7×(13)=737 \times \left(\frac{1}{3}\right) = \frac{7}{3} pounds.
  3. Subtract Total Weight: Subtract the total weight of snack bags from the initial amount of trail mix to find out how much is left for her brother: (176)(73)(\frac{17}{6}) - (\frac{7}{3}).
  4. Find Common Denominator: To subtract the fractions, find a common denominator. The common denominator for 66 and 33 is 66. Convert 73\frac{7}{3} to 146\frac{14}{6}: (176)(146)(\frac{17}{6}) - (\frac{14}{6}).
  5. Subtract Numerators: Now subtract the numerators: 1714=317 - 14 = 3. So, Atenea gives her brother 36\frac{3}{6} pounds of trail mix.
  6. Simplify Fraction: Simplify the fraction 36\frac{3}{6} to its lowest terms: 36=12\frac{3}{6} = \frac{1}{2}. So, Atenea gives her brother 12\frac{1}{2} pound of trail mix.
