There are 5 cups of oatmeal in a container. Jessica eats 1/3 cup of the oatmeal every day for breakfast. In how many days will Jessica finish all the oatmeal in the container?

It would take Jessica 15 days to finish the container.

Step-by-step explanation:

To work this out you would first multiply 1/3 by 3, which gives you 3/3 or 1. This shows that it would take Jessica 3 days to eat 1 cup of oatmeal. Then you would multiply 3 by 5, which is 15. This means that it would take Jessica 15 days to finish the container.

1)  Multiply 1/3 by 3.

2) Multiply 3 by 5.
