In order to find the total Jessie sold in these three days, let's add these amounts:


\begin{gathered} 10(2)/(3)+3(1)/(3)+2(2)/(3) \\ =10+(2)/(3)+3+(1)/(3)+2+(2)/(3) \\ =15+(5)/(3) \\ =15+1+(2)/(3) \\ =16+(2)/(3) \\ =16(2)/(3) \end{gathered}

So Jessie sold 16 2/3 gallons of lemonade in there three days.
