Answer:

84

Explanation:

If it's 18 juice boxes for 6 children then the ration is 6:18. Since both numbers are divisible by 3, do that. You then get a ratio of 2:6, both of those are divisible by 2, do that and get 1:3. So there's 3 juice boxes per kid, so multiply 28x3 and get 84.

The answer will be 84 juice boxes.

If you divide 18 juice boxes by 6 children, that’s 3 juice boxes per child. Since they are expecting 28 children, you multiply the rate of 3 juice boxes by 28 to get 84.
