Answer: 11/7 tons
Explanation:
To determine how much sugar one container can hold, you need to divide the total amount of sugar (6 2/7 tons) by the number of containers (4).
First, convert the mixed number 6 2/7 to an improper fraction:
(7 * 6) + 2 = 44/7
Now, divide 44/7 tons by 4 containers:
(44/7) / 4 = (44/7) * (1/4) = 44/28
Simplify the fraction:
44/28 = 11/7
So, each container can hold 11/7 tons of sugar.
