Answer 2

Thank you for asking this question ,let me help you.

from the equation we know that
2/3 of the wooden crate is tomatoes filled in quantity =5/7 pounds 
So in order to find out the 1 crate tomatoes = 5/7 ÷ 2/3
So the in one crate the tomatoes will be = 5/7 * 3/2 
Thus by furthur solving                            = 15/14 pounds pf tomatoes
 and other case, that will be 1.07 pounds of tomato in one crate
