Fifteen cups of flour are to be stored in containers. Each container holds 2 1/3 cups. How many containers will the flour fill? What fraction of another container will it fill?

We will fill 6 containers with 3/7 of another full

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the number of cups of flour and divide by the amount each container will hold

15 : 2 1/3

Change to an improper fraction

15 : (3*2+1) / 3

15: 7/3

Copy dot flip

15 * 3/7

45/7

Change to a mixed number

6*7 = 42 with 3 left over

6 3/7

We will fill 6 containers with 3/7 of another full

6 full and 3/7 of container

15 cups divided by 2 1/3

(15) / 2 1/3 = 45/7=6.429 you need 7 containers
