Answer

Find out the how many packages will be needed for 28 children if each child gets 4 pencils .

To prove

As given

There are 8 pencils in a package .

Total number of childrens = 28

each child gets 4 pencils

Total number of pencils needed for 28 children = 28 × 4

= 112

Now find out the Number of packages for 28 children .


Number\ of\ packages\ needed\ for\ 28\ children =(Total\ numer\ of\ pencils\ needed)/( pencils\ in\ a\ package)

As

Total number of pencils needed = 112

pencils in a package = 8

put in the above


Number\ of\ packages\ needed\ for\ 28\ children = (112)/(8)

Number of packages needed for 28 childrens = 14

Therefore the 14packages will be needed for 28 children if each child gets 4 pencils .
