market. How many gift cartons can Bob's
fill with the remaining grapefruits? How
many grapefruits will be left?

Answer 1

170 cartons ; 15 Grapefruits

Explanation:

Given:-

Total grapefruits : 4325

Bob sold : 1250

Remaining is : 3075 (4325-1250)

How many gift cartons can Bob’s fill with the remaining grapefruits

Grapefruit per carton: 18 (given)

= 3075/18

= 170 cartons

How many grapefruits will be left

= 3075 - 3060

= 15 Grapefruits

I hope my answer helps you.
