Question 1065159
The total amount of water in two containers is 35 quarts. If 7 quarts is poured from the container with less water into the container with more water, the container with more water will have 4 times as much water as the other container. How many quarts are in the container with less water?
<pre>The container with less water started with: {{{highlight_green(matrix(1,2, 14, quarts))}}}
<b><u>FYI:</b></u> No TRICK to this!! It's pretty straight-forward.

No, it's not the correct answer. You misread the problem. Note that 7 quarts was poured from the container with LESS water (14 - 7 = 7), into the container 
with MORE water (21 + 7), which makes the one with less, now with 7 quarts, and the one with more, now with 28 quarts, which means that the one with MORE 
(28 quarts), still has more, and contains 4 times (4 * 7) the one with LESS (7).

You seem to have poured from the container with MORE into the container with LESS, but it should be the other way around. This is how I understand it!
