Answer: 8/9 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

The word 'of' means 'times' as far as fractions are concerned. In this case, we have 1/3 of 2 1/3.

First, it is a good idea to make 2 1/3 an improper fraction - as 8/3, so now we have:

1/3 of 8/3, but since 'of' means 'times' we have,

1/3 x 8/3 = 8/9

The answer is 8/9 cups.
