Question

Victor had dozen boxes, with n number of water bottles in each box. After removing dozen bottles, there were 84 bottles. Find the number of bottles in each box.

Answer 1

The number of bottles in each box is 8.

Explanation:

Number of boxes = a dozen = 12

Number of bottles in each box = n

Total number of bottles = n x 12 = 12 n

12 bottles are removed

number of bottles

12 n - 12 = 84

12 n = 96

n = 8

So, the number of bottles in each box is 8.

Answer 2

Number of bottles in each box = 8

Explanation:

Given:

Number of boxes = 12 boxes

Number of bottle in each box = n

Number of bottle remove = 12

Number of bottle remain = 84

Find:

Number of bottles in each box.

Computation:

Total bottle = (Number of boxes)(Number of bottle in each bo)

Total bottle = 12n

12n = 12 + 84

12n = 96

n = 8

Number of bottles in each box = 8
