If they have 20 pounds of strawberries to freeze. If they put 1.25 pounds of strawberry would in to each freezing container how many containers will they fill

They will fill 16 containers

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

They have 20 pounds of strawberries to freeze and they put 1.25 pounds of the strawberry into each freezing containers.

To determine how many freezing containers they will fill, we will divide the total mass of strawberries they have by the mass of strawberry they put into each freezing containers.

Hence,

Number of containers they will fill = Total mass of strawberries that have / Mass of strawberry they put into each container

Total mass of strawberries that have = 20 pounds

Mass of strawberry they put into each container = 1.25 pounds

∴ Number of containers they will fill = 20 pounds / 1.25 pounds

Number of containers they will fill = 16

Hence, they will fill 16 containers.
