First, we will need to convert the mixed fractions to improper fractions.

Numerators: (2 · 11) + 1 = 23

                      (4 · 1) + 3 = 7

Denominators: stay the same.

11 ⇒

1  ⇒

Next, we must divide these two fractions:

÷

We must flip the divisor into a reciprocal:

÷

Change the division sign to multiplication and multiply:

× =

To find out how many containers will be needed, simply convert this fraction to a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator.

92 ÷ 14 = 7 (Rounded)
