Jacqueline is not correct. 12/3miles x 4 days = 5/3 x 4/1 = 20/3miles.

Jacqueline is incorrect.
To find how much trash you can clean in 4 days if you already know how much trash you can clean in one day, multiply 1 2/3 (how much you can clean in one day) by 4.
Another way to write 1 and 2/3 miles is 5/3 (converting a mixed number to a single fraction). Then, 5/3 x 4 = 20/3. (To multiply fractions, just multiply across, leaving 5 x 4 in the numerator and 4 x 1 in the denominator.)
Jacqueline said you would be able to clean 19/3 miles but you can actually clean 20/3.
