Answer:

B. 7

Explanation:

According to the word problem, Muna is dividing a piece of string that 42 2/3 long into 2/3 pieces.


(14)/(3) /(2)/(3) (changed to an improper fraction)

Whenever dividing fractions, remember this:

SAME, CHANGE, RECIPROCAL (FLIP)

KEEP THE FIRST FRACTION THE SAME

CHANGE THE DIVISION SIGN TO A MULTIPLICATION SIGN

FLIP THE SECOND FRACTION


(14)/(3) *(3)/(2) =(42)/(6)


(42)/(6) =7

I, therefore, believe Muna will have 7 pieces of string.
