Answer 1

Answer:

80 boxes are there.

Step-by-step explanation:

How many cookies are made each day?

64 trays of cookies are made per day.

Each tray contains 15 cookies.

This can be solved using a rule of three.

1 tray - 15 cookies.

64 trays - x cookies

x = 64*15 = 960

960 cookies are make a day. Each box has 12 cookies. How many boxes are there, considering that there are 960 cookies?

1 box - 12 cookies

x boxes - 960 cookies

12x = 960

x = 960/12

x = 80

80 boxes are there.
