Answer:

Explanation:

You need to divide the total number of souvenir paperweights divded by how much the box holds.

You will get 91.923 however you cant have only part of a box so you have to round up to 92.

92 boxes
you divide 1195 by 13 because it will give you the number of boxes needed by splitting it into groups of 13. the calculator gives u the answer 91.92 but because you can’t split a paperweight you round it to the highest number which is 92
