4.66 tin of cat food

Answer 2

Hi :)

First, how many days are in a week?

• 7 days are in a week
• So 7x 2/3

First, Convert any mixed numbers to fractions.

Then your initial equation becomes:

2/3×7/1

Applying the fractions formula for multiplication,

=2×7 x 3×1

=14/3

Simplifying 14/3, the answer is

4 and 2/3

Therefor, your answer is 4 2/3
