Question

Mary eats 2 2/3 cups of cereal each week. If this is in a 5 day week, how much cereal does Mary eat each day? Write answer in simplest form. 

Answer 1

Just divide 2 2/3 by 5

2 2/3 = 8/3

8/3 divided by 5 = 8/3 x 1/5 = 8/15 cup each day of the 5 day week,

that's slightly more than 1/2 cut each day
