Answer:

totalnumber of packets needed =8

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 71 children and each pencil packet has 10 pencils,  therefore number of packets of pencil required

Total number of children÷  Total number of pencils per packet

71÷10

quotient=7  remainder =1

7 packet has 70 pencil and we need to get an other packet for the 71st pencil. Therefore the totalnumber of packets needed =8
