JQuery: hide parent based on child property

Question

JQuery: hide parent based on child property

This is an HTML page (sample)

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<div id="first">
<label>First</label>
<input type="checkbox" checked="checked">
</div>

<div id="second">
<label>Second</label>
<input type="checkbox">
</div>

</body>
</html>

It shows two flags as shown below.

I would like to know if it is possible using jQuery to hide only the second flag.

The actual page I'm working on contains about 40 flags, and I would like the solution to be applicable even for this.

Is it possible?

Can someone let me know how to do this?

Use the :not()c selector :checkedto check the box without a checkmark.
Use the closest one to get the parent div, then use .hide()

$('.anchor:not(:checked)').closest('.container').hide();

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div id="first" class='container'>
  <label>First</label>
  <input type="checkbox" checked="checked" class='anchor'>
</div>

<div id="second" class='container'>
  <label>Second</label>
  <input type="checkbox" class='anchor'>
</div>
