Cole bought some kiwis and repacked them into bags of 27. He had 108 such bags of kiwis and 13 kiwis left.
- How many kiwis did Cole buy?
- Cole wanted to have 110 bags of kiwis. How many more kiwis must he buy?
(a)
Number of kiwis that Cole bought
= 108 x 27 + 13
= 2916 + 13
= 2929
(b)
Number of kiwis required for 27 bags
= 27 x 110
= 2970
Number of more kiwis that Cole must buy
= 2970 - 2929
= 41
Answer(s): (a) 2929; (b) 41
