Answer:

59 / 96 :)

Explanation:

The fraction is the number of orange juice containers divided by the number of total containers!

So, the number of orange juices are 177, and the total number of containers are 288.

So, the fraction will be 177 / 288!

This fraction can actually be simplified down to 59 / 96, by dividing the numerator and the denominator by 3 :)
