    Answer: 2 days

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The monkeys eat 3 ²/₃ buckets of bananas each day. Convert this to an improper fraction:

    = 3²/₃ = 11/3 buckets per day

    The zookeeper bought 7¹/₃ which is:

    = 22/3 buckets

    To find out the number of days the bananas will last, divide the buckets bought by the buckets eaten per day:

    = 22/3 ÷ 11/3

    = 22/3 * 3/11

    = 66/33

    = 2 days

    If dividing fractions, multiply by the reciprocal of the second fraction.
