Question

One box of cake mix makes a maximum of 24 cupcakes. If the caterer needs 300 cupcakes for the event, what is the minimum number of boxes of cake mix he will need? 11 12 13

Answer 1

Since the caterer needs 300 cupcakes and each box makes a maximum of 24 cupcakes, divide 300 by 24.
300/24 = 12.5
He will need at least 13 boxes of cake mix to make the cupcakes
