Question

One tree can produce 175 avocados. The avocados are packed in boxes of 24. How many boxes are needed?

Answer 1

8 boxes

Explanation:

Divide 175 by 24 since you have 175 avocados and 24 can be put in each box. This gives you 7.29166666667. You have to round up to get 8.

Answer 2

8 boxes would be needed

Explanation:

175/24 = 7 with a remainder of 7 and you cannot just leave out those 7 avocados, they will be lonely so therefor you will need another box and 7+1=8
