    Amount of liquid plant fertilizer in the container that the gardener has = 6 1/5 pounds

    = 31/5 pounds

    We already know that 1 pound = 16 ounce

    Then

    Amount of liquid plant fertilizer in the

    container that the gardener has = (31/5) * 16 ounce

    = 496/5 pounds

    Amount of liquid plant fertilizer that the gardener uses on Sunday = 2 1/2 ounces

    = 5/2 ounces

    Then

    The amount of liquid plant fertilizer that are left = (496/5) - (5/2) ounces

    = (992 - 25) / 10 ounces

    = 967/10 ounces

    = 96.7 ounces

    So the total amount of liquid plant fertilizer left is 96.7 ounces.
