Maya purchased 8¼ pints of ice cream for a party. If each guest will be served exactly ⅔ pint of ice cream, what is the greatest number of guests that Maya can serve? Write an equation and solve. Explain why your strategy makes sense.

Step-by-step explanation:

turn both fractions into decimals boo, this will make it easier to solve.

g can equal amount of quests

so, the equation will be g(2/3)=8 1/4

put in as decimal divide 2/3 both sides

round to nearest whole number bc there cannot be a part of a person

this works bc it is each guest getting the same amount of ice cream until it is gone boo<3 hope this help
