Question

mary uses shipping boxes to mail 832 boxes of crayons. Each bow can hold 24 boxes of crayons. If she fills each box, how many boxes of crayons will be in the last box

Answer 1

16 crayons in the last box

Explanation:

when you divide 832 by 24, you get 34.some large decimal number. You now know that it must be less than that to get a whole number. So you can do 24 x 34 and get 816. you then have 16 left over and that will go into the last box.
