b) 47
c) 48
d) 50

Answer 1

The number of boxes needed to package and ship the hard candy is 50. Option D is answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that there are 500 hard candies, and each box can hold 10 candies, we can calculate the number of boxes needed by dividing the total number of candies by the number of candies per box.

Number of boxes needed = Total number of candies / Number of candies per box

Number of boxes needed = 500 candies / 10 candies/box

Number of boxes needed = 50 boxes

Therefore, 50 boxes are needed to package and ship the hard candy. Option D is answer.
