Answer:

331 full boxes of melon

Explanation:

Division word problems:

To find the number of full boxes, we have to divide the total melons (2650) by the number of melon that each box can hold(8).

After dividing, the quotient will be the number of full boxes.

No. of full boxes = 2650 ÷ 8

= 331

When we divide 2650 by 8 we get 331 as quotient and 2 as balance.

So, we have 331 full boxes of melons
