Question

The owner of a malt shop spent $3 buying 2 boxes of cups with each box containing 516 cups. If he expected the cups to last 6 months, how many cups does he plan to use each month?

Answer 1

172, since he bought two boxes and each had 516 there was 1,032 in all. Since he wants them to last 6 months, then you divide by six and get 172 :) I think this is what it is asking.
