4. At a school fundraiser, for every 9 boxes of chocolates sold you earn 5 points. If you

were to sell 72 boxes, how many points would you have earned?

Answer: 40

Explanation:

so since we know that every 9 boxes is worth 5 points we then have to find out how many 9 boxes are in 72. So we do 72/9 and we get 8 then we multiple that by 5 to get the points from the 8 groups of nine.
