Answer:

2/3 pound of dough is left

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of dough available = 6 pounds

The amount used in making sandwich rolls = 8/9 of the total amount

= [tex]\frac{8}{9} \times6 = 5\frac{1}{3} pounds[/tex]

Therefore, amount of dough left over [tex]= 6- 5\frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{3} \\[/tex]

Hence, 2/3 pounds of dough is left
