Answer: D

Explanation:

To find the answer for this problem, you will need to convert all the terms into improper fractions. Since you want 2 1/2 of the recipe, you need to multiply by 2 1/2.

2 1/2 = 5/2

3 2/3 = 11/3

And then you would multiply and solve:

5/2 * 11/3 = 55/6

55/6 = 9 1/6

The answer is D :)
