Answer 2

Answer:

According to your question that is given above

we have to find the number of boxs to fill the total marbles 289 of 17 marbles in each box

and we have to also find how many marbles will be in the last box

There is a easy process to solve these types of questions.

just divide the total number of marbles by 17 and the remainder will be the , remaining marbles in the box .

so let us solve

Total number of marbles , 283

marbles present in one box = 17

So box required = 283/17

when we divide we got 16 as quotient and 11 as remainder

so total number of box needed is 16 and number of marbles in last box is 11 .
