Answer:

2 2/3

Explanation:

Shelly added 1/3, 2/3, 4/3 , and 1/3 she determined the sum of the fractions to be 8/3 what is 8/3 as a mixed number?

Hencd6:

1/3 + 2/3 + 4/3 + 1/3

Lowest Common Denominator

= 3

Hence:

1 + 2 + 4 + 1/3

= 8/3

Converting this mixed fraction

= 8/3 = 2 2/3

Hence, 8/3 as a mixed fraction = 2 2/3
