Answer:

five sixths pound

Step-by-step explanation:

Kip bought [tex]1\frac{4}{6}[/tex] pounds of toffee. He gave [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] of a pound to his friend. How much toffee does he have left?

The narrator is asking how much he has left after giving some toffee to his friend, that means we have to subtract.

[tex]1\frac{4}{6}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

We already have an equal denominator so we can just subtract.

[tex]\frac{10}{6}-\frac{5}{6}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex]

Kip has [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] pounds left.
