Answer: [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] or [tex]1\frac{2}{3}[/tex] or [tex]1.6666...[/tex] or [tex]1.67[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Since every whole number has a denominator of 1, we can "change" 5 into [tex]\frac{5}{1}[/tex], and then multiply that by [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex], which would give us [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex]. From there we can convert the [tex]\frac{5}{3}[/tex] from an improper fraction into a mixed number. Hope this helps!
[tex]\frac{1}{3} *\frac{5}{1} = \frac{5}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5}{3} = 1 \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]1\frac{2}{3} = 1.67 (1.6666...)[/tex]
