A shipment of 8 tons of sugar is separated into containers of equal size. If the shipment fills 3 1/3 containers, how much sugar can one container hold. You don't have to give me the answer jus explain it please. Thanks!!!
take 8 and divide it by 3 1/3. to make it easer 1/3 could be .3 as a decimal. so 8 divided by 3.3. 8/3.3= 2.42 so it would be 2.42 tons of sugar per container.
