Answer:

19

Explanation:

Adriana needs to send 232 invitations to her family and friends for her party.

There are 12 invitations in a box.

We need to find how many boxes will Adriana needs to order so that everyone receives an invitation. Let there are x boxes. It can be calculated as :


x=(232)/(12)\\\\x=19.34

or

x = 19

So, she will need approx 19 boxes.
