Question

Camp oaks gets 32 boxes of orange juice and 56 boxes of apple juice. Each shelf in the cupboard can hold 8 boxes of juice. What is the least number of shelves needed for all the juice boxes?

Answer 1

32 + 56 = 88 boxes of juice in total
88/8 = 11 shelves

Answer 2

Answer: 11

Explanation:

Given: The number of boxes of orange juice = 32

The number of boxes of apple juice = 56

Then, the total number of boxes of juices =
`32+56=88`

Since, each shelf in the cupboard can hold 8 boxes of juice.

Then, the least number (n) of shelves needed for all the juice boxes is given by :-

`n=(88)/(8)=11`

Hence, the least number of shelves needed for all the juice boxes =11.
