Question

Hey! Please help i will give brainlest!!·

Answer 1

Answer:

7⅔ pounds to be shared 1⅓ per container.

For a clearer and swift understanding

Change them from Mixed NUMBERS to simple fractions

7⅔ = 23/3

1⅓ = 4/3

Now

We need to Fill 23/3 pounds of walnuts by 4/3 each into a container

Simply divide 23/3 by 4/3 to know how many walnuts that would enter

23/3 ÷ 4/3

23/3 x 3/4 = 23/4.

SO 23/4 CONTAINERS WOULD BE FILLED.

23/4 containers when converted to mixed numbers is

5¾.

This is our answer.

But Looking at the Question

5¾ has been broken to two fractions.

The Number that'll fill the blank space is 5.

Why? 5 + 9/12 = 23/4 which is the answer we got initially.

ANSWER = 5

Hope it helps tho.

I'm open to questions if there's any!

Have a great day!
