Answer:

A 4 cup container of food is
(2)/(3) groups of 6 size.

Explanation:

Let the size be x.

as per the given condition:

4 cup of containers of food is
(2)/(3) of x.

which implies,


4 =(2)/(3)* x

Division property of equality states that you divide the same number to both sides of an equation.

Divide by
(3)/(2) to both sides of an equation;


4 * (3)/(2) = (2)/(3)x * (3)/(2)

Simplify:

6 =x or

x =6

Therefore, a 4 cup container of food is
(2)/(3) groups of size 6.
