Hey!

------------------------------------------------

Solution:

~Subtract

96 - 60 = 36 (tiles he needs)

~Divide

36 / 4 = 9 (number of packages he needs)

------------------------------------------------

Answer:


\Large\boxed{\mathsf{9~packages!}}

------------------------------------------------

Hope This Helped! Good Luck!
