Answer:
You can fill 11 containers.
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is asking you to divide 24.75 pounds among 2.25 pound holding containers.
So all you must do is divide 2.25 by 24.75. This leaves us with a quotient of 11.
-3=a
-a+4a-9=8a+6
3a-9=8a+6
3a-9-6=8a+6-6
3a-15=8a
3a-3a-15=8a-3a
-15=5a
-15/5=5a/5
