Complete Question

To test the rate of stream water evaporation, you fill two 18-inch containers to the brim with stream water and leave them in protected areas in the shade. When you return one week later, Container A is 8/18 -inches full and Container B is 5 /18 -inches full. How much less water, in the simplest form, is in Container B?

Container B contained 13/18 - inches less water

Step-by-step explanation:

The container contained 18 inches of water.

For container B after a while, the water is 5/18 inches full.

Hence,

5/18 of an 18 inches container =

Let the fraction of the 18 inches container be represented as:1

1 - 5/18

= 18 - 5/18

= 13/18

Therefore, container B after a while under the shade, contained 13/18 - inches less water
