Question

Bryson's cat had six kittens this summer. Each kitten weighs 5 1/3 ounces. How much did all the kittens weigh together?

Answer 1

Each kitten weighs 5 1/3 ounces. Converting this weight to improper fraction, it becomes

16/3 ounces

Since the total number of kittens is 6, the weight of all the kittens is

16/3 * 6 = 32 ounces

The total weight is 32 ounces
