Picking the first one a lemon is [tex]frac{{3}{6}} [\tex] , the second one also lemon [tex]frac{{2}{5}} [\tex] and the third one [tex]frac{{1}{4}} [\tex].
[tex]frac{{3*2*1}{6*5*4}} [\tex] can be rearanged as
The remaining weight of the empty bottle is 0.5 because each third of the bottle weighs 2.5 pounds and of the remaining juice and the bottle was 3 pounds 2.5 subtracted from 3 is 0.5
