Answer:

Actually, 20 divided by 2 1/3 equals 8.57 repeating (8.571428...), which can be rounded to 8.57 to two decimal places.

To see why, we can convert the mixed number 2 1/3 to an improper fraction:

2 1/3 = (2 * 3 + 1) / 3 = 7/3

Then, we can rewrite the division as a fraction and simplify:

20 / (7/3) = 20 * (3/7) = 60/7 = 8.571428...

So, 20 divided by 2 1/3 is approximately 8.57.
