Answer:

They can make 49 hamburgers.

Step-by-step explanation:

The operation we will be using is division

Convert 32 2/3 into an improper fraction= 98/3

Flip 2/3 into its reciprocal: 3/2 (When dividing fractions, we always flip the divisor into its reciprocal

Multiply:

98            3

-----    x   ------

3               2

You can cross simplify so both 3's become 1.

98            1

-----   x    -----

1                2

98x1=98

1x2=2

You now simplify:

98/2=49

They can make 49 hamburgers.

Hope this helps! :)
