Answer:

14.67 gram

Explanation:

Henry has two pixie sticks full of delicious sugar.

Now, each pixie stick contains 22 grams of sugary goodness, then in two sticks, there will be (22 × 2) = 44 grams of sugar.

Now, Henry shares two pixie sticks among two friends and himself in equal proportion.

Therefore, each of his friends will get
(44)/(3) = 14.67 (Round to the nearest tenth) gram of sugary goodness. (Answer)
