Question

Explain how the model shows that 2 1/3 is equal to 7/3

Answer 1

They are both equivalent just written in different ways

Step-by-step explanation

2 1/3

3*2=6

Add 1 which is the numerator

That leaves you with 7

Then you keep the 3 as the denominator.

That gives you 7/3

How to check

3 goes into 7, 2 times. So that gives you 2 and you have one left over to make it 7, so make 7 your numerator and the denominator always stays the same which is 3.

Hope this helps :3
