Question

What is 1/3 multiply by 5​

Answer 1

Answer: $\frac{5}{3}$ or $1\frac{2}{3}$ or $1.6666...$ or $1.67$

Step-by-step explanation:

Since every whole number has a denominator of 1, we can "change" 5 into $\frac{5}{1}$, and then multiply that by $\frac{1}{3}$, which would give us $\frac{5}{3}$. From there we can convert the $\frac{5}{3}$ from an improper fraction into a mixed number. Hope this helps!

$\frac{1}{3} *\frac{5}{1} = \frac{5}{3}$

$\frac{5}{3} = 1 \frac{2}{3}$

$1\frac{2}{3} = 1.67 (1.6666...)$
