Question

Mrs. Dudley is organizing a breakfast party for her office of 240 employees. She wants to

buy enough donuts so that everyone can have 2. If donuts come in boxes of 12, how many
boxes does she need to buy?

Answer 1

40 boxes

Explanation:

Total donuts needed = number of employers x 2 = 240 x 2 = 480

Number of boxes = total number of donuts needed ÷ 12 = 480 ÷ 12 = 40
