Answer 1

The equations needed to find out how many of the 1/4 gallon containers can be filled are:

A. 4/3 + 6/5 = 44/15 (This is the total amount of light-blue mixture in gallons)
B. (1/4) * (44/15) = 11/15 (This is the number of 1/4 gallon containers that can be filled)

So the correct answer is B. (1/4) * (4/3 + 6/5) = 11/15.
