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.
Dividing both sides by 1/6, we get
÷ 
= 
÷.
Therefore, x = ÷
Division expression that represents the capacity of the container = 2/3 ÷ 1/6.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) <u>Jamal spent:</u>
<u>Isaiah spent:</u>
<u>The equation is:</u>
b) <u>Solving the equation</u>
- 2x = 3x - 6.75
- 3x - 2x = 6.75
- x = 6.75
c) <u>Jamal's items cost </u>
<u>Isaiah's items cost </u>
- $6.75 - $2.25 = $4.50 each

Complete Question
A teacher gave his class two quizzes. 80% of the class passed the first quiz, but only 60% of the class passed both quizzes. What percent of those who passed the first one passed the second quiz? (2 points)
a) 20%
b) 40%
c) 60%
d) 75%
Answer:
d) 75%
Step-by-step explanation:
We would be solving this question using conditional probability.
Let us represent the percentage of those who passed the first quiz as A = 80%
and
Those who passed the first quiz as B = unknown
Those who passed the first and second quiz as A and B = 60%
The formula for conditional probability is given as
P(B|A) = P(A and B) / P(A)
Where,
P(B|A) = the percent of those who passed the first one passed the second
Hence,
P(B|A) = 60/80
= 0.75
In percent form, 0.75 × 100 = 75%
Therefore, from the calculations above, 75% of those who passed the first quiz to also passed the second quiz.
Here's what you have to do: multiply. 54.9×12= 658.8. So, he traveled 658.8 miles in twelve hours.
