Let "b" represent the number of biscuits Jacky baked.
.. container A holds (3/7)b
.. container B holds (1 -3/7)*(5/8)b = (5/14)b
.. container C holds (1 -3/7 -5/14)b = (3/14)b = 168
Then
.. b = 168/(3/14) = 784
Jacky baked 784 biscuits.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
25%
Step-by-step explanation:
Let v, t be the current average speed and the time taken to reach the school respectively.
As distance = speed x time, so,
distance, d=vt...(i)
Let V be the new average speed in order to to take 20% less time than t.
So, time taken with speed V = t-20% of t = t- 0.2t= 0.8t
As distance is constant, so
d= V(0.8t)= 0.8Vt
hBy using equation (i), we have
0.8Vt = vt
0.8 V = v
V= v/0.8=1.25v
Therefore, the percentage increase in the average speed = 

=25%
Hence, the percentage increase in the average speed is 25%.
12/372= 31 is the answer.
