Question

how many boxes should show on grid for 3/8=18 eggs​

Answer 1

The number of box is an illustration of proportions

8 boxes must be shown on the grid

The proportion is given as:

$\mathbf{\frac{3}{8} = 18\ eggs}$

The above proportion means that:

3/8 of the total number of eggs is 18

Let the total number of eggs, be x

So, we have:

$\mathbf{\frac{3}{8} \times x= 18\ eggs}$

Express 3/8 as a decimal

$\mathbf{0.375 \times x= 18\ eggs}$

Divide both sides by 0.375

$\mathbf{x= \frac{18}{0.375 }\ eggs}$

$\mathbf{x= 48\ eggs}$

This means that, the total number of eggs is 48, and 8 boxes must be shown on the grid
