answer as 30. What number did​

Answer 1

Answer:

There will be only 1 pencil put in the last box and all the pencils will get arranged in this way.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of pencils = 55

Total number of box = 10

Pencils put in first box  =10

Pencils left = 55 - 10 = 45

Pencils put in the 2nd box = 9

Pencils left = 45 - 9 = 36

Pencils put in the 3rd box = 8

Pencils left = 36 - 8 = 28

Pencils put in the 4th box = 7

Pencils left = 28 - 7 = 21

Pencils put in the 5th box = 6

Pencils left = 21 - 6 = 15

Pencils put in the 6th box = 5

Pencils left = 15 - 5 = 10

Pencils put in the 7th box = 4

Pencils left = 10 - 4 = 6

Pencils put in the 8th box = 3

Pencils left =  6 - 3 = 3

Pencils put in the 9th box = 2

Pencils left =  3 - 2 = 1

Pencils put in the 10th box = 1

Pencils left = 1 - 1 = 0.

Therefore, there will be only 1 pencil put in the last box and all the pencils will get arranged in this way.
