Answer:

75

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 50 by 2/3. Division is the same as asking "how many times can i subtract 2/3 from 59?"

[tex]50 \div \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

Dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal.

[tex]50 \times \frac{3}{2} = 75[/tex]

You can subtract 2/3 from 50, 75 times
