Q. A construction crew has just finished building a road. The road is

8

kilometers long. If the crew worked for

3 \frac{1}{3}

days, how many kilometers of road did they build each day? (Assume they built the same amount each day.)

\newline

Write your answer as a mixed number in simplest form.

Calculate Total Length: First, let's figure out the total length of the road and the total days worked.
Calculate Daily Progress: Next, we need to calculate the amount of road built each day by dividing the total road length by the total days worked.
Convert to Mixed Number: Convert $2.4$ km/day into a mixed number to match the format requested in the problem.
