Given:

Jazmine made $3\dfrac{1}{3}$ cups of jam.

One jar can hold $\dfrac{2}{5}$ cup.

To find:

Number of jars of jam can Jasmine make.

Solution:

We have,

Capacity of each jar = $\dfrac{2}{5}$ cup

Total jam made by Jazmine = $3\dfrac{1}{3}$ cups

= $\dfrac{3(3)+1}{3}$ cups

= $\dfrac{10}{3}$ cups

Now,

$\text{Number of Jars of jam}=\dfrac{\text{Total jam made by Jazmine}}{\text{Capacity of each jar}}$

$\text{Number of Jars of jam}=\dfrac{\dfrac{10}{3}}{\dfrac{2}{5}}$

$\text{Number of Jars of jam}=\dfrac{10}{3}\times \dfrac{5}{2}$

$\text{Number of Jars of jam}=\dfrac{25}{3}$

$\text{Number of Jars of jam}=8\dfrac{1}{3}$

Approx the value to the next integer.

$\text{Number of Jars of jam}\approx 9$

Therefore, Jasmine make 9 cups of jam in which 8 are completely filled and one is filled one third.
