A total of 68 awards will be given to the soccer team. Each box holds 8 awards. How many awards are in the partially filled box?
To find out how many awards are in the partially filled box, we need to determine the number of boxes that are fully filled first, and then calculate the remaining awards.
Let's divide the total number of awards by the number of awards per box:
68 awards ÷ 8 awards per box = 8 boxes
So, there are 8 fully filled boxes.
To find the remaining awards, we subtract the number of fully filled boxes multiplied by the number of awards per box from the total number of awards:
68 awards - (8 boxes × 8 awards per box) = 68 awards - 64 awards = 4 awards
Therefore, there are 4 awards in the partially filled box.
To find the number of awards in the partially filled box, we first need to determine the number of filled boxes.
We know that a total of 68 awards will be given to the soccer team, and each box holds 8 awards. Therefore, the number of filled boxes can be found by dividing the total number of awards by the number of awards in each box:
68 awards / 8 awards per box = 8 complete boxes
Now that we have found the number of complete boxes, we can determine the number of awards that have been placed in full boxes. We calculate this by multiplying the number of complete boxes by the number of awards in each box:
8 complete boxes x 8 awards per box = 64 awards in full boxes
Since there are 68 total awards, and 64 of them are in full boxes, we can find the number of awards in the partially filled box by subtracting the number of awards in full boxes from the total number of awards:
68 total awards - 64 awards in full boxes = 4 awards in the partially filled box
Therefore, there are 4 awards in the partially filled box.
