    Stacie consumed 4.42 ounces of solid food.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First of all, we have to find the total ounces of solid food that Stacie consumed by adding all of her portions as given in the question. However, since she did not eat the full servings of each food, we first have to find how much of each food she ate exactly.

    Thus;

    1/2 of 3 oz of meatloaf = ½ * 3 = 3/2 ounces

    3/4 of 3 oz of mashed potatoes =

    ¾ * 3 = 9/4 ounces

    1/3 of 2 oz of green beans

    = ⅓ * 2 = 2/3 ounces

    Now, adding them up we have;

    3/2 + 9/4 + 2/3 ≈ 4.42 ounces

    Stacie consumed 4.42 ounces of solid food.
