Question

Bo needs 8 dozen cupcakes for his family reunion. the cupcakes he wants to buy come in packages of 5 .what is the fewest number of packages should buy to have enough cupcakes?

Answer 1

8 times 12 = 96

96 divided by 5 = 19.2 => 20 since 19 times 5 is 95 so add one more

Answer 2

a dozen is 12 so 8 dozen is 96 so 96/5=19.2 so he should have at maximum 19 packages with 2.4 cupcakes left over
