You conduct an inventory for a hardware store and count 40 rolls of duct tape. Your manager wants to keep 7 boxes of duct tape in stock. If each holds 8 rolls of duck tape, how many boxes should you order? Justify your answer.

Respuesta :

Answer: 2 boxes

Step-by-step explanation: first realize that 7 times 8 is 56 so the manager wants 56 rolls in stock and you only have 40

then subtract 56 - 40 = 16 and this means you need 16 rolls

remember that there is 8 rolls in a box and 16 divided by 8 is 2 so 2 boxes should be ordered

hope this helps mark me brainliest if it did
