Final answer:

The printing company needs to divide the total number of t-shirts (3,125) by the number of t-shirts per box (25), resulting in the need for 125 boxes to ship all the shirts.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question about how many boxes a printing company would need to ship 3,125 t-shirts if each box fits 25 t-shirts is a straightforward division problem. To determine the number of boxes needed, we divide the total number of t-shirts by the number of t-shirts that can fit in one box.

Number of boxes = Total t-shirts ÷ T-shirts per box = 3,125 ÷ 25 = 125 boxes

Therefore, the printing company would need 125 boxes to ship all the t-shirts to the stadium.
