Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:To divide 5 by 2 and 1/3, we need to convert the mixed number 2 and 1/3 into an improper fraction and then perform the division.
First, convert 2 and 1/3 into an improper fraction:
\[2 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{(2 \times 3) + 1}{3} = \frac{6 + 1}{3} = \frac{7}{3}\]
Now, we can perform the division:
\[ \frac{5}{\frac{7}{3}} = 5 \times \frac{3}{7} = \frac{5 \times 3}{7} = \frac{15}{7}\]
So, 5 divided by 2 and 1/3 equals \( \frac{15}{7}\).
