Question

collins made orange and guava candy. she made enough orange candy to fill 5 jars. if she made 2/3 as much guava candy, how many jars will the guava candy fill?

Answer 1

The answer is 10/3 or 3 and 1/3 jars of Guava candy. You get this answer because you know how many jars of orange candy you have, and since you only need to know how many jars you multiply 5 by 2/3 for the fraction 10/3 which reduces to 3 1/3. So 3 1/3 jars of guava candy.
