The candy shop puts 10 ounces of gummy bears in each box. How many

Hi! You need 3 boxes because if you divide 21 1/4 / 10 you get 2 1/8 or 2.125 so you at least have two boxes. You will still have some left over after the two boxes so you will need another box for those. I hope this helped, Goodluck :)
