[tex]32.0oz[/tex]

EXPLANATION

Penelope purchased 5¹/₃ ounces of each of the 6 fruits.

To find the total number of ounces of fruit that she purchased, multiply 5¹/₃ ounces by 6.

That is:

[tex]\begin{gathered} 5\frac{1}{3}\cdot6 \\ \Rightarrow\frac{16}{3}\cdot6 \\ 32.0oz \end{gathered}[/tex]

That is the number of ounces of fruit that she bought.
