~Hello There!~
Divide the total number of pounds by the fraction in each container:
[tex]5/ (\frac{6}{8})[/tex]
This will give you:
6.66666666667
Assuming that Mr B didn't bring any partially filled containers, he would have had to bring 7 containers.
Hope This Helps You!
Good Luck :)
Have A Great Day ^_^
