Answer:

[tex]Fraction = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Boxes = 4[/tex]

[tex]Content = \frac{1}{6}[/tex] full

Required

Determine the fraction if the cans are put together

The fraction is calculated by multiplying the content of each box by the number of boxes;

This is show below;

[tex]Fraction = Boxes * Content[/tex]

Substitute 4 for Boxes and [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex] for content

[tex]Fraction = 4 * \frac{1}{6}[/tex]

[tex]Fraction = \frac{4}{6}[/tex]

Divide the numerator and denominator by 2

[tex]Fraction = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]

Hence;

The fraction filled with can is [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
