Answer:

165 containers

Explanation:

Total quarts of cider poured into container by Timothy= 60 quarts

Each container hold part of quart=
(4)/(11) of quarts

We have to find the number of containers

Number of containers =
(Total number of quarts)/(Part of quart)

Number of containers =
(60)/((4)/(11) )

Number of containers =
(60)/(4)× 11

Number of containers = 15×11

Number of containers = 165 containers

Hence, the correct answer is 165 containers
