Answer:

The container is filled to 87.5% of the maximum capacity.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Maximum capacity of container = m = 64 ounces

Filled capacity=> as it is 8 less than maximum capacity = 64-8 = 56 ounces

The container is 56 ounces full.

To find the percentage:

[tex]percentage = \frac{56}{64}*100\\= 0.875*100\\=87.5\%[/tex]

Hence,

The container is filled to 87.5% of the maximum capacity.
