Question

Halley drank 2 1/3 glasses of milk on Monday. Tyrone drank 1 1/3 times as much milk as Halley.
How many glasses of milk did Tyrone drink?

Answer 1

(About. NOT exactly) 24.7 oz. So, Tyrone drank (about) 3 cups of milk. 3-2 1/3= 2/3.

Answer 2

thx

Answer 3

Yep, 3 sounds accurate.

Answer 4

you should multiply the two numbers
2 and 1/3 times 1 and 1/3

first write them as an "improper fraction"
2 and 1/3 is 7/3 (do you know how to do that ?)
and
1 1/3 is 4/3
now do
\[ \frac{7}{3}\cdot \frac{4}{3} \]
multiply top times top and bottom times bottom to get
\[ \frac{28}{9}\]
