2.64 pts Sorry, that's not accurate enough. a third of a gallon is m"one third of 8 pints", so we have to divide 8 by 3. If you do this as a decimal calculation you should divide 8.0000000 (as many noughts as you like) by 3, and this will produce the answer 2.66666666 (as many sixes as you like). Correct to 3 decimal places that would be 2.667

Divide by 3
To multiply by a fraction, divide by its reciprocal. In this instance, 24 x 1/3 is equal to 24/3 = 8.
when you divide an item by three the number you end up with is a third eg 30 divide by 3 equals 10 and that means ten is a third of 30
