Question

--> The managers want to know how many boxes of 12 cookies can

be filled with the 3,258 cookies that have been baked. Fatima
starts by subtracting the largest number of boxes she can easily
calculate. She knows that 100 boxes of 12 cookies can be put into
one crate. How many crates can be filled from the total of 3,258
cookies?

Answer 1

271 boxes

Explanation:

Answer 2

3 crates are required for 3258 cookies

Explanation:

since the boxes can have 12 cookies each

number of boxes = number of cookies / number of cookies per box

number of boxes = 3,258 cookies / 12 cookies/box = 271.5 boxes = 272 boxes (271 completely filled and one halfway filled)

since each crate can hold 100 boxes

number of crates = number of boxes / number of boxes per crate

number of crates = 272 boxes/ 100 boxes/crate = 2,72 crates = 3 crates (2 completely filled and one 72% filled)

therefore the number of required crates for 3258 cookies is 3
