Q. Harry makes 2232\frac{2}{3} cups of strawberry jam to give to his friends. He divides the jam evenly into 44 jars. How much jam is in each jar? Use the model to help answer the question. Write your answer as a whole number, proper fraction, or mixed number. \newline____ cups
  1. Convert to Improper Fraction: Step 11: Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.\newlineHarry starts with 2232\frac{2}{3} cups of jam. To make calculations easier, convert this mixed number to an improper fraction.\newline223=(2×3+2)/3=832\frac{2}{3} = (2 \times 3 + 2)/3 = \frac{8}{3} cups of jam.
  2. Divide Total by Jars: Step 22: Divide the total amount of jam by the number of jars.\newlineHe divides 83\frac{8}{3} cups of jam evenly into 44 jars.\newline83÷4=83×14=812=23\frac{8}{3} \div 4 = \frac{8}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{8}{12} = \frac{2}{3} cups of jam per jar.
