A store owner started the day with 770 passion fruits. He sold
47 of the passion fruits and gave
13 of the remainder away. He placed the rest into boxes of 44. How many boxes would he need?
Sold |
Remainder |
Total |
4 u |
3 u |
7 u |
|
Gave away |
Rest |
|
4 u |
1 u |
2 u |
7 u |
Total number of passion fruits = 7 u
7 u = 770
1 u = 770 ÷ 7 = 110
Number of passion fruits that were left
= 2 u
= 2 x 110
= 220
Number of boxes that the store owner would need
= 220 ÷ 44
= 5
