The maximum number is infinite but the minimum number of containers is 5
25-6.25=18.75
18.75/3.75=5

The maximum number of 3 3/4 pound portions of rice he stored is 5.

What is the maximum number that was stored?

The first step is to determine the pounds of rice left after Vincent cooked the rice.

Rice left = 25 - 6.25 = 18.75 pounds

The second step is to divide 18.75 by 3 3/4

18.75 x 4/15 = 5
