SOLUTION

Each bottle contains


4(3)/(4)scoops

The formula container holds


266\text{scoops }

1). The mathematical operation required is


\text{Division }

Division(/)

2). The calculation required to solve the problem is


\begin{gathered} 266\text{ divided by 4}\frac{\text{3}}{4} \\ or \\ 266(.)/(.)4(3)/(4) \end{gathered}

Then


\begin{gathered} 266(.)/(.)4(3)/(4) \\ \\ 266(.)/(.)(19)/(4) \\ \text{Change the division to multiplication } \\ 266*(4)/(19) \\ \end{gathered}

Hence


(266*4)/(19)=(1064)/(19)=56

hence

56
