Answer:

1 3/4 cups of wheat flour is in the bowl

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2/3 = 2 5/12

First, convert the 2/3 to 12ths by multiplying numerator and denominator by 4 = 8/12

Then convert the 2 5/12 to an improper fraction 29/12

x + 8/12 = 29/12

subtract 8/12 from both sides

x = 21/12 = 1 9/12 = 1 3/4
