Answer:

Dan eat [tex]2\frac{2}{3}[/tex] pizzas

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> amount of pizza Jay ate

y-----> amount of pizza Dan ate

we know that

[tex]x=\frac{2}{3}[/tex] ----> equation A

[tex]y=4x[/tex] -----> equation B

substitute equation A in the equation B and solve for y

[tex]y=4(\frac{2}{3})=\frac{8}{3}[/tex]

Convert to mixed number

[tex]\frac{8}{3}=\frac{6}{3}+\frac{2}{3}=2\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
