Answer 2

Answer: Carol needs 14 plastic bags.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Carol makes
`9(1)/(3)` cups of snacks mix. She puts all the snack mix into plastic bags and she puts
`(2)/(3)` cup of the snack mix in each bag.

We are to find the number of plastic bags that Carol needs.

Let, n be the number of plastic bags that Carol needs.

Then, according to the given information, we have

`n* (2)/(3)=9(1)/(3)\\\\\\\Rightarrow (2n)/(3)=(28)/(3)\\\\\\\Rightarrow n=(28* 3)/(3* 2)\\\\\\\Rightarrow n=14.`

Thus, Carol needs 14 plastic bags.
