Answer:

23.5 or 23 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to turn both fractions into improper fractions.

23 1/2 - 47/2 3/4

Since you want to know how many 2/3 pieces you can make out of 23 1/2 piece, you would divide. When you fractions you can use : Same. Change. Flip.

47/2 = 47/2 ; Same

÷ = × ; Change

3/4 = 4/3 ; Flip

47/2 × 4/3= 141/6

141÷6=23.5 or 23
