Answer:
4 and 4/9 containers
Step-by-step explanation:
6 2/3 lbs
We want to divide this into 1 1/2 lbs containers
6 2/3 ÷ 1 1/2
Change the mixed numbers into improper fractions
(6*3 +2)/3 ÷ ( 1*2+1)/2
(20/3) ÷ (3/2)
Copy dot flip
20/3 * 2/3
40/9
9 goes into 40
4*9 = 36
It goes in 4 times with (40-36 =4) 4 left over
4 4/9
4 1/10
