    23.5 or 23 pieces

    Step-by-step explanation:

    First you have to turn both fractions into improper fractions.

    23 1/2 - 47/2 3/4

    Since you want to know how many 2/3 pieces you can make out of 23 1/2 piece, you would divide. When you fractions you can use : Same. Change. Flip.

    47/2 = 47/2; Same

    : = *; Change

    3/4 = 4/3; Flip

    47/2 * 4/3 = 141/6

    141:6=23.5 or 23
