Cans of soda are packaged in boxes containing the same numbers of cans. There are 26 cans in four boxes. (i) How many cans are there in 7 boxes. (ii) How many boxes are needed to package 99 cans of soda

(i) 45.4 cans

(ii) 15.23 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we know that each box contains same number of cans.

For boxes contains 26 cans of soda. Thus a box will contain, 26/4 number of cans = 6.5 number of cans.

(i) seven boxes contains = 7*6.5

=45.5 Number of cans.

(ii) Number of boxes needed to package 99 cans of soda = 99/6.5

= 15.23 number of boxes.

(i) Approximately 46 cans (rounded off to whole number)

(ii) Approximately 15 boxes (rounded off to whole number)

Step-by-step explanation:

26 cans in four boxes meaning 1 box has (26/4) cans

(i) 7 boxes will have (26/4) * 7 = 182/4 = 45.5 cans

Boxes needed to package 99 cans = (26/4) * numbers of boxes

(26/4) * numbers of boxes = 99

numbers of boxes = 99 / (26/4) = 15.23
