A grocer started the day with 380 kiwis. He sold
25 of the kiwis and gave
13 of the remainder away. He placed the rest into containers of 38. How many containers would he need?

|
2 u |
1 u |
2 u |
5 u |
Total number of kiwis = 5 u
5 u = 380
1 u = 380 ÷ 5 = 76
Number of kiwis that were left
= 2 u
= 2 x 76
= 152
Number of containers that the grocer would need
= 152 ÷ 38
= 4
