A fruit seller started the day with 400 passion fruits. He sold
25 of the passion fruits and gave
13 of the remainder away. He placed the rest into boxes of 32. How many boxes would he need?

1 u |
2 u |
5 u |
Total number of passion fruits = 5 u
5 u = 400
1 u = 400 ÷ 5 = 80
Number of passion fruits that were left
= 2 u
= 2 x 80
= 160
Number of boxes that the fruit seller would need
= 160 ÷ 32
= 5
