Question

Ty is placing CDs in boxes. There are a total of 7,200 CDs. Each box holds 90 CDs. How many boxes will Ty fill? A. 80 B. 70 C. 100 D. 90

Answer 1

80 CDS

Explanation:

Total CDs available = 7200CDs

Amount of CD in each box = 90 CDs

To get the number of boxed Ty will fill, we will say;

90CDs = 1box

7200 CDs = x

Cross multiply

90 * x = 7200 * 1

90x = 7200

x = 7200/90

x = 80

Hence Ty will fill total of 80 boxes.

Answer 2

80 boxes.

Explanation:

Total CDs available = 7200CDs

Amount of CD in each box = 90 CDs

To get the number of boxed Ty will fill, we will say;

90CDs = 1box

7200 CDs = x

Cross multiply

90 * x = 7200 * 1

90x = 7200

x = 7200/90

x = 80

Hence Ty will fill total of 80 boxes.
