Final answer:

Kevin has 9 packs of trading cards left, totaling 72 cards, after giving 2 packs to Sanjay.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question concerns mathematics, particularly the topic of multiplication and subtraction as it pertains to counting items in groups. Kevin started with 11 packs of Magic Monster trading cards and gave 2 packs to Sanjay. To find out how many packs Kevin has left, we perform a subtraction: 11 - 2 = 9 packs remaining. Furthermore, each pack contains 8 cards. To find the total number of cards Kevin has, we multiply the number of packs by the number of cards per pack: 9 packs × 8 cards per pack = 72 cards.

Kevin has 11 packs of Magic Monster trading cards. He gives 2 packs to Sanjay, his best friend. Each pack has 8 cards.

To find the total number of cards Kevin gives to Sanjay, we can multiply the number of packs by the number of cards in each pack. So, 2 packs * 8 cards/pack = 16 cards.

Therefore, Kevin gives Sanjay a total of 16 cards.
