Question

14. Wisco's winter carnival is coming up, and Mr. Raymond is in charge of ordering the craft kits again. He knows he ordered 13 boxes of snow globe kits last year but can't remember how many kits came in a box. He checks the records and finds that the school used 172 of the snow globe kits last year and had 10 left over after the event. How many snow globe kits come in each box?​

Answer 1

Assume x to be the number of snow globe kits that come in each box.

Then the equation that describes the given situation is

13x - 10 = 172

13x = 182

x = 14

So, the number of snow globe kits that come in each box is 14.

Answer 2

169
