How many 1/3rds are there in 14 1/3?

Divide 14 1/3 by 1/3 to get the answer.

14 1/3  ÷  1/3

Write both as common fractions:

14 1/3  =  (14 x 3 + 1)/3  =  (42 + 1)/3  =  43/3

43/3  ÷  1/3

To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal:

43/3 x 3/1  =  (43 x 3) / (3 x 1)  =  129 / 3  =  43
