Sofia has 112 muffins to place into equal packages of 8. The packages will sell for $5 each. What is the total value of the complete packages of muffins?

I'm confused as to what the question is asking, but I'll give it my best shot.

112/8 = 14 muffins per package.

If the packages sell for $5, the price for the combined 8 packages will be $40.

To get the answer, first, you must find the amount in each box, so you must divide, 122 divided by 8, you should get 15.25, but that's not your answer. The question asks how many COMPLETE boxes, so just choose the whole number, which is 15. 15 is the answer.
