Final answer:
To find out how many staples each box holds, we can divide the total number of staples by the number of boxes. For example, if we have 4 boxes, then each box will hold 62 staples.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many staples each box holds, we can divide the total number of staples by the number of boxes.
If a box of staples holds 250 staples, and we have 'n' number of boxes, then we can calculate the number of staples each box holds by dividing 250 by 'n'.
For example, if we have 4 boxes, then each box will hold 250/4 = 62.5 staples. Since we cannot have a fraction of a staple, we round down to the nearest whole number, so each box would hold 62 staples in this case.
