Answer:

28 cups of coffee

Explanation:

We can start by converting so that the two numbers have the same denominator. 4 2/3 as an improper fraction is 14/3. Then, you would multiply the top and bottom by 2 which is 6. So, your new fraction is 28/6, which is equal to 4 2/3. Divide by 28/6 by 1/6 to get 28.
