there are 3 thirds in a whole.
Well, isn't that a happy little question! In 5 and two thirds, you have 5 whole thirds and an additional two thirds, making it a total of 7 thirds. Just imagine all the beautiful things you can create with those thirds!

If every fraction could be turned into a whole number, we wouldn't need fractions. 5 thirds is not a whole number, and there's nothing you can do to make it one, except to find another third somewhere and toss it on the pile. If you can do that, then you'll have 2. But if you're stuck with 5 thirds, then there's no way to make a whole number.
You can only get one 2/3 out of a whole, since two times two thirds is four thirds which is one and a third, hence, larger than a whole.
