Question

Kenny is packing cans into bags at the food bank. He can pack 8 cans into each bag. How many bags will Kenny need for 1,056 cans?

Answer 1

Kenny needs `132` bags to pack `1056` cans.

Explanation:

Kenny needs to pack `1,056` cans in bags. As each bag can be packed with `8` cans,

The number of bags needed for packing `1056` cans can be found by dividing `1056` by `8`. Let us do it

`color(white)(xxxxxxxx)ul(132)`
`color(white)(xxxxxx)8)1056`
`color(white)(xxxxxxxx)ul(8)`
`color(white)(xxxxxxxx)25`
`color(white)(xxxxxxxx)ul(24)`
`color(white)(xxxxxxxxx)16`
`color(white)(xxxxxxxxx)ul(16)`
`color(white)(xxxxxxxxx)X`

Hence, Kenny needs `132` bags to pack `1056` cans.
