Question

Camp Oaks gets 32 boxes of orange juice and 56 boxes of apple juice. Each shelf in the cupboard can hold 8 boxes of juice. What is the least number of shelves needed for all the juice boxes?​

Answer 1

At least 11 shelves are needed for all the juice boxes.

Explanation:

Given that:

Boxes of orange juice = 32

Boxes of apple juice = 56

Total boxes = 32+56 = 88

As one shelf can hold 8 boxes of juice.

Number of shelves =
`(88)/(8)`

Number of shelves = 11

Hence,

At least 11 shelves are needed for all the juice boxes.
