Question

Container A has twice the capacity of container B. Container A is full of sand and container B is empty. suppos 1/8 of the sand in container A is poured into container B. What fractional part of container B will contain sand?

Answer 1

A = 2B
(1/8)A = (1/8)(2B) = (1/4)B

(1/4)B/B = 1/4 <--
