[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Let x be the amount of food Wanda gives her cat the rest of the day.

The total amount of food given to the cat every day is 2/3 cup.

The amount of food given in the evening is 1/4 cup.

Therefore, the amount of food given the rest of the day can be calculated as:
x + 1/4 = 2/3

Subtracting 1/4 from both sides:
x = 2/3 - 1/4
x = 8/12 - 3/12
x = 5/12

So, Wanda gives her cat 5/12 cup of food the rest of the day.
