ANSWER

[tex](6\times4)+(6\times\frac{2}{3})[/tex]

EXPLANATION

We want to know many ounces of pretzels Levi has, knowing that he has 6 bags and each bag contains 4 2/3 ounces.

To find the answer, we have to multiply the number of bags by the ounces of pretzels each bag has,

[tex]6\times4\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

The mixed number is equivalent to the expression that results from adding the whole part and the fraction part of the number, so,

[tex]4\frac{2}{3}=4+\frac{2}{3}[/tex]

If we replace this in the multiplication above,

[tex]6\times(4+\frac{2}{3})[/tex]

Then apply the distributive property of multiplication over addition, the expression used to solve this is,

[tex](6\times4)+(6\times\frac{2}{3})[/tex]
