anonymous · Answer

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

Yep, 3 sounds accurate.

phi · Answer

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
$$ \frac{28}{9}$$
