Question

A bookstore orders 200 books the books are packaged in the black boxes that holds 24

each all the boxes the bookstore bookstore receives are full except one how many boxes does the bookstore receive

Answer 1

I believe 9. I divided 200 books among 24 boxes and got 8.3333..., so that means there would be 8 full boxes plus 1 not full boxes which means that there are 9 boxes total.

Answer 2

The book store will receive 9 boxes 

because if you divide 200 with 24 you get 8.333 and even if one box is not full they will still get the box meaning the library will get a total of 9 boxes
