### Instruction: Calculate $6 \cdot 8\frac{1}{3}$.### Response: To multiply a whole number by a mixed number, I can first convert the mixed number to an improper fraction.
To do that, I multiply the denominator by the whole part and add the numerator.
So, 8\frac{1}{3} becomes \frac{24}{3} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{25}{3}.
Now, I can multiply 6 by \frac{25}{3} by multiplying the numerators and the denominators.
That gives me \frac{150}{3}.
To simplify this fraction, I can divide both the numerator and the denominator by 3.
That gives me \frac{50}{1}, which is the same as 50.
