Question

If you were asked to load 225 boxes onto a truck, and the boxes are crated with each crate containing nine boxes, how many crates would you need to load

Answer 1

If you have 225 boxes, and nine fit in one crate. 225 divided by 9 is 25. You would need 25 crates to load all 225 boxes into the truck.

Answer 2

You should load 25 crates onto a truck.

Explanation:

Given:

There are 225 boxes.

Each crate containing 9 boxes.

We need to find the number of crates that containing 225 boxes.

Here we use division to find the answer.

Number of crates = Total number of boxes / Number of boxes in each crate

= 225/9

= 25

You should load 25 crates onto a truck.
