Answer:

This guy is wrong. 1 2/3 is equal to 5/3. But that is not the answer(like that dummy above said)

The Question is asking "How many 1/3's are in 1 2/3" (5/3)

The answer is 5, not 5/3's.

Answer:

5 thirds

Explanation:

Make 1 2/3 into a improper fraction. Now you have 5/3. 5/3-(1/3*5)=0

Therefore, 5x1/3=5/3=1 2/3
