Question

Sebastian needs to fill a container that holds 3/4 liters of water using bottles that hold 1/3 liters of water. How many liters bottles will he need?

a. 9/4
b. 4/3
c. 4/9
d. 3

Answer 1

c

Explanation:

Answer 2

goal is 3/4 = 9/12

one step is 1/3 = 4/12

since the denominator is the same, we can ignore it and just look at how many 4's we need to get 9

4 * 9/4 = 9, so c is indeed correct
