Mr. Washington is putting his DVDs on a shelf that is 10 2⁄3 inches long. If each DVD is 11⁄20 inches wide, how many DVDs can he put side-by-side on the shelf?

(10 2/3)/(11/20)

(32/3)/(11/20)

(32/3)*(20/11)

640/33

19 13/33 since DVDs are integer units Mr. Washington can only have 19 DVD's side-by-side.
