Answer:

5

Explanation:

Since this is division for a fraction, you do keep, change, flip.

First, you keep the first fraction.

3 1/3 ÷ 2/3

Then, you flip the ÷ to a ×.

3 1/3 × 2/3

Next, you flip the 2nd fraction.

3 1/3 × 3/2

Now you can make the mix number an improper fraction.

10/3 × 3/2

Finally multiply across.

10/3 × 3/2 = 30/6

Simplify.
