A rectangular container with a base of 24 inches by 15 inches is 1/3 filled with water. If all the water is poured into an empty rectangular container measuring 12 inches by 18 inches by 10 inches, it will fill the second container to its brim. What is the height of the first container?

One shot. if 60% of 10 is 6, then what is 70%? we know it would be seven (since 60% is mathematically 60/100, or 6/10, then 70% is 70/100, or 7/10) but we can check anyway using ratios: 6 : 60% = x : 70%*inverse multiplicationx * 60% = 6 * 70%*divide both sides by 60%x = (6 * 70%) / 60%x = 7and since he has made 6 shots already, he would need just one more to get 7 shots or 70%. if the explanation is too confusing, comment and i will try to
