A full box of cereal contains 12and 1 half cups. Each morning for breakfast Jules eats a serving of cereal that is 1and 1 half cups in size. How many 1and 1 half-cup servings are in a full box of cereal? Express your answer as a mixed number.

To answer this question, you would need to divide the total amount of cereal in the box by the serving size.

This would be 12 2/3 divided by 1 1/3.

We can write each mixed number as an improper fraction first before we divide:12 2/3 = 38/3 and 1 1/3 = 4/3

Now divide 38/3 by 4/3. Recall that dividing by a fraction is accomplished by multiplying by the reciprocal of the divisor: 38/3 * 3/4 = 114/12 = 38/4 OR 19/2

Also, 19/2 is equivalent to 9 and 1/2. There would be 9 and 1/2 servings in the box of cereal.
