Question

Mr. Jackson is ordering kazoos for his second, third, and fourth grade music classes.

The kazoos come in boxes of 8. There are 26 second graders, 24 third graders, and 30 fourth graders.
How many boxes of kazoos does Mr. Jackson need to order so that every student will receive a kazoo?
Enter your answer in the box.

Answer 1

The answer is 10.


You have to add 24 with 26 with 30 then divide that by 8 and which will get you ten. Ten is how many packages you Mr. Jackson would need for his 2nd, 3rd, and 4th grade classes

Answer 2

The boxes of kazoos Mr. Jackson needs to order (26 + 24 + 30) ÷ 8.

We have given that,

There are 26-second graders, 24 third graders, and 30 fourth graders.

What is the expression?

An expression, in math, is a sentence with a minimum of two numbers and at least one math operation contain in it.

The amount of kazoos needed is 1 for every student

26 + 24 + 30

Since 8 come in each box, you divide by 8

To get your answer of (26 + 24 + 30) ÷ 8.
