To find the fraction of the assignment that Celeste's mom checked, we need to multiply the fractions 5/6 and 2/3:
(5/6) * (2/3)
This can be simplified by multiplying the numerators (5 * 2) and the denominators (6 * 3):
10/18
This fraction can be simplified further by dividing the numerator and denominator by their greatest common factor, which is 2:
5/9
So, the fraction of the assignment that Celeste's mom checked is 5/9.
To find the fraction of the assignment her mom checked, divide the number of problems her mom checked (23) by the total number of problems (56).
Fraction = Number of problems checked / Total number of problems
Fraction = 23 / 56
Therefore, the fraction of the assignment her mom checked is 23/56.
To find the fraction of the assignment that Celeste's mom checked, we need to divide the number of problems her mom checked by the total number of problems in the assignment.
Celeste completed 56 problems, and her mom checked 23 problems.
So, to find the fraction, we divide 23 by 56:
Fraction = 23 / 56
This fraction cannot be simplified further, so the answer is 23/56.
Therefore, the fraction of the assignment that Celeste's mom checked is 23/56.
