Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Total amount of tomatoes ÷ one container of tomatoes = No. of salsa made:

[tex]3\frac{1}{2}[/tex]÷[tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7}{2}[/tex]×[tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] (To change the ÷ sign to ×sign, swap the denominator and the numerator of the second fraction)

       = [tex]\frac{21}{4}[/tex]

       = 5[tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
