Question

Zoe is helping her parents at their store, The Sock Stop. She is organizing 658 pairs of socks into display boxes. Each display box holds 4 pairs of socks. How many pairs of socks are left over?

Answer 1

2

Explanation:

4 pairs are kept in 1 box.

658 pairs are kept in `= (1/4) * 658`

`=> cancel (658)^color(red)(329) / cancel(4)^color(red)2 = 164 1/2`

She fills 164 boxes and 2 socks are left over.
