Bashir collected [tex]$4 \frac{1}{3}$[/tex] baskets of peaches at an orchard. If each basket holds 21 peaches, how many peaches did he collect in all?

Question

kport · Answer

Okay so to solve this, I would first multiply 21 by 4 to get 84 peaches for the 4 baskets. To get the 1/3, the easiest way for me is to take 1/3 of 21 (# of peaches a full basket holds.) 1/3 of 21 is 7. 
 Then, you would add 84 and 7to get a total of 91 peaches.

Bashir collected a total of 91 peaches from 4 3 1 ​ baskets, with each basket containing 21 peaches. To calculate the total, the mixed number was converted to an improper fraction and then multiplied by the number of peaches per basket. The final answer is 91 peaches.
