Answer

Find out the  how many packages will be needed for 28 children if each child gets 4 pencils .

To prove

As given

There are 8 pencils in a package .

Total number of childrens = 28

each child gets 4 pencils

Total number of pencils needed for 28 children = 28 × 4

                                                                               = 112

Now find out the Number of packages for 28 children .

[tex]Number\ of\ packages\ needed\ for\ 28\ children =\frac{Total\ numer\ of\ pencils\ needed}{ pencils\ in\ a\ package}[/tex]

As

Total number of pencils needed = 112

pencils in a package = 8

put in the above

[tex]Number\ of\ packages\ needed\ for\ 28\ children = \frac{112}{8}[/tex]

Number of packages needed for 28 childrens = 14

Therefore the 14packages will be needed for 28 children if each child gets 4 pencils .
