Answer:

5 loaves

Explanation:

The question should be "Dianna made several loaves of bread yesterday. Each loaf required 2 2/3 cups of flour. All together, she used 13 1/3 cups of flour. How many loaves did Dianna make?"


2(2)/(3)=(8)/(3)\ \text{cups}

and


13(1)/(3)=(40)/(3)\ \text{cups}

Let Dianna make x no of loaves.

Using the concept of ratio and proportion,


(1)/((8)/(3))=(x)/((40)/(3))\\\\x=(40)/(8)\\\\x=5

Hence, Dianna will make 5 loaves.
