A container of coffee is 1/6 full. That container contains 2/3 of a pound of coffee write a division expression that represents

Marizza181 [45]

Let us assume total capacity of the container = x pounds.

Container contains 1/6th coffee of total x pounds, that is x/6 pounds.

We also given that 1/6th part is equal to 2/3 of a pound.

So, we could setup an equation now.

x/6 pounds equals 2/3 of a pound.

$\frac{x}{6} = \frac{2}{3}$

Dividing both sides by 1/6, we get

$\frac{x}{6}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{6}$ = $\frac{2}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{6}$ .

Therefore, x = $\frac{2}{3}$ ÷ $\frac{1}{6}$

Division expression that represents the capacity of the container = 2/3 ÷ 1/6.
