He would have to use 104 pages because 591+234=825 and 825÷8=103.125 but if you round it, it would go to 104.

Answer:

He could use 104 pages in the photo books .

Explanation:

Given :

A photographer has 591 photos of animals and 234 photos of plants.

Each page of the photo books holds 8 photos.

To Find : Fewest number of pages he could use in the photo books.

Solution :

A photographer has 591 photos of animals and 234 photos of plants.

Thus total no. of photos he have = 591+234 = 825 photos

Since he wants to put all the photos into photo book

No. of pages required for 8 photos = 1

No. of pages required for 1 photo = 1/8

No. of pages required for 825 photos:


=
(1)/(8) *825


⇒103.125 pages ≈ 104 pages

Hence he could use 104 pages in the photo books .
