Question

A container is 8/9 kg of berries is 2/3 full, how many kg can the container hold

Answer 1

Answer:

1.33kg of berries

Step-by-step explanation:

A container is 8/9 kg of berries is 2/3 full, how many kg can the container hold

2/3 of a container = 8/9kg

To get the amount of kg the container can hold, we will write;

1 container = x kg

Divide both expressions

2/3 = 8/9x

Cross multiply

2 * 9x = 3*8

18x = 24

x = 24/18

x = 1.33kg

Hence the container will hold 1.33kg of berries
