Question

ameena is printing the class newsletter there are 8 pages in the newsletter and she needs 74 copies . Each package of paper contains 90 sheets. How many packages of paper does she need to print the newsletter?

Answer 1

Ameena needs to print a total of 592 pages for the class newsletters. Considering each package contains 90 sheets, she will require 7 packages of paper to print all copies.

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the total number of sheets needed:

Number of pages × Number of copies = Total sheets needed

8 pages/newsletter × 74 copies = 592 sheets

Divide the total sheets by the sheets per package:

Total sheets needed / Sheets per package = Number of packages

592 sheets / 90 sheets/package = 6.58 packages

Round up to the nearest whole number:

Since you can't use fractions of packages, Ameena needs to round up to ensure enough paper for all copies.

Round 6.58 packages up to 7 packages

Since Ameena can't purchase a fraction of a package, she will need to round up to the nearest whole package.

Therefore, Ameena needs 7 packages of paper to print the entire newsletter. This ensures she has enough sheets for all the copies without running out during the printing process.

Answer 2

Ameena will need a total of 7 packages of paper. (Not every sheet will be used, but having just 6 packages won’t give here enough paper to use). Here’s why:

If she needs 74 copies of the newsletter, and each newsletter contains 8 pages, then she will need a total of 592 pieces of paper (74*8=592). 7 packages will give her 630 pieces of paper to use (90*7=630). 6 packages would only give her 540 pieces of paper (90*6=540), so she needs 7 total packages of paper.
