The problem asks how many bags of apples Victor used per pie, given that he used 5 1/3 bags of apples to make 8 pies.

### Step-by-step solution:

1. **Convert the mixed number to an improper fraction**:
   \( 5 \frac{1}{3} \) is the same as \( \frac{16}{3} \) (because \( 5 \times 3 + 1 = 16 \)).

2. **Divide the total number of bags by the number of pies**:
   To find the number of bags per pie, we divide \( \frac{16}{3} \) by 8.
   \[
   \frac{16}{3} \div 8 = \frac{16}{3} \times \frac{1}{8} = \frac{16}{24} = \frac{2}{3}
   \]

So, Victor used **\( \frac{2}{3} \)** bags of apples for each pie.

Here are 5 related questions for practice:
1. How many bags of apples are needed for 10 pies if Victor uses 5 1/3 bags for 8 pies?
2. If Victor had 10 bags of apples, how many pies could he make using the same rate of apples per pie?
3. Convert \( 7 \frac{2}{5} \) into an improper fraction and divide it by 6. What do you get?
4. If another recipe uses 4 2/3 bags for 9 pies, how many bags are used per pie?
5. Victor decides to use \( \frac{1}{2} \) more apples for each pie. How many total bags will he need now for 8 pies?

**Tip**: When dividing by a whole number, remember you can multiply by its reciprocal!
