Question

120 pens are packed in 4 boxes with equal number of pens in each box how many boxes need to pack 15dozen pens

Answer 1

Answer:

6 boxes are needed to pack 15 dozen pens

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many boxes are needed to pack 15 dozen pens, we have to find out how many pens can fit in 1 box.

So in order to find out we have to divide 120 from 4

The quotient is 30. So now we know that 30 pens can fit in 1 box.

Now we will find out how many pens are there in 15 dozen.

As we know 1 dozen=12

So 15 dozen×12=180 pens

Now we divide 180 from 30

The answer is 6 boxes.

So 6 boxes are needed to fit 15 dozen pens

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

120 pens are packed in 4 boxes

=120/4

=30 pens

Each box contains 30 pens

Here we have to find that how many boxes will be needed to pack 15 dozen pens.

1 dozen = 12

So.15 dozen = 15 x 12=180

= 180 pens

Now how many boxes will be required to pack 180 pens

=If each box contains 30 pens then,

180/30

= 6

Therefore,6 boxes will be required to pack 180 pens.
