Mrs. Smith baked three pies for a party. She cut each pie into six slices. She served 2 1/3 of the pies. How many slices of pie did Mrs. Smith serve?

2 1/3 * 6 =
14
Since Mrs. Smith baked three pies, there are a total of:

3 x 6 = <<3*6=18>>18 slices of pie.

She served 2 1/3 of the pies, which is equivalent to:

2 + 1/3 = 7/3 pies.

To find out how many slices of pie she served, we can multiply the number of pies by the number of slices in each pie:

7/3 x 6 = 42/3 = 14.

Therefore, Mrs. Smith served 14 slices of pie.
