The answer is B, you will need at least 6 spring roll wrapper packages.

The way you get the answer is by turning the word problem into an expression. You can make this into the fraction (17*6+15*3)/(25). 17 is the number of adults and you multiply this by how many spring rolls Jill wants to give each adult, which is 6, you can do the same for the children. Next the denominator is 25 which represents the amount of spring roll wrappers per each package. When you simplify the answer comes around to 5.88, but since you cant buy 88% of a spring role wrap package you have to buy another whole one, which makes the answer six.
