Answer:

4 containers

Explanation:

We are told he has ¾ gallon of orange juice.

Now, we are told he wants to pour it into 1/6 gallon containers.

Thus means that to get the number of containers he can fill, we have to divide 1/6 by 3/4.

Amount of containers he fills = 3/4 ÷ 1/6 = 3/4 × 6/1 = 4.5

Since we are looking for the number he can fill, it means we will not consider the decimal and instead just say it's 4 containers.
