Respuesta :

8 [tex] \frac{2}{3} [/tex] pounds of walnuts
1 [tex] \frac{1}{5} [/tex] pound containers 

8 [tex] \frac{2}{3} [/tex] ÷ 1 [tex] \frac{1}{5} [/tex] = 7  [tex] \frac{2}{9} [/tex]=7  [tex] \frac{4}{18} [/tex]


Answer with explanation:

Amount of Walnut in the container [tex]=8 \frac{2}{3} \text{Pounds}[/tex]

It is transferred in the container which can hold [tex]=1 \frac{1}{5} \text{Pounds}[/tex]

Total number of containers

      [tex]=\frac{\text{Volume of bigger container}}{\text{Volume of Larger Container}}\\\\=\frac{\frac{26}{3}}{\frac{6}{5}}\\\\=\frac{65}{9}\\\\=7 \frac{2}{9}\\\\=7 \frac{4}{18}[/tex]

This would fill 7 and 4 over 18 containers.
