Question

Mr Riley baked 1,692 chocolate cookies he sold them in boxes of 36 cookies each. How much money did he collect if he sold them all 8 per boxes

Answer 1

$376

Explanation:

So We Know Mr. Riley Baked 1,692 Chocolate Cookies, And We Know He Sold Them In Boxes Of 36 Cookies Each.

So We Would Have To Divide 1,692 By 36 And You Would Get 47, So He Has 47 Boxes Of Chocolate Cookies.

And We Also Know He Sold Each Box Of Cookies For $8, So You Would Multiply 47 By 8 And You Would Get $376.

So Mr. Riley Made $376 After Selling All The Boxes Of Chocolate Cookies.

Answer 2

So first we need to find the total number of boxes that the cookies could fit in:

`(1,692)/(36)=47`

Now we know that 47 boxes were made from this amount of cookies.

If Mr. Riley sells each box for 8, then we need to multiply the number of boxes by 8:

`47*8=376`

So Mr. Riley will collect a total of 376 from selling all of his cookies.
