First let's state our givens:
We know that Kenny eats an average of 5 1/3 boxes of cereal every two months.
This means that we will have to multiply 5 1/3 by 6, as there are 12 months in a year, and 12/6 = 2.
To get our answer, follow these steps:
1. Turn 5 1/3 into an improper fraction:
5 1/3 = 16/3
2. Now, multiply 16/3 by 6:
6 x 16/3 = 96/3 = 32
Kenny will eat 32 boxes of cereal in one year if he eats an average of 5 1/3 boxes of cereal every two months. Hope this helps and have a fantastic day!
