Answer:

She needs to fill the container 7 times with flour

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine expression for total quantity of flour

The expression for the total quantity of flour is as follows;

T=q×n

where;

T=total quantity of the flour

q=quantity per cup

n=number of cups

where in our case;

T=2 1/3

q=1/3

n=unknown

Step 2: Solve for n

The expression can be rewritten as;

n=T/q

replacing;

n=2 1/3/1/3

n=(7/3)/(1/3)

n=(7/3)×3=7

She needs to fill the container 7 times with flour
