Answer:
She started with 26 boxes.
Step-by-step explanation:
She started with x boxes. Then she bought 8 more boxes. Now she had x + 8 boxes. Then half the boxes were destroyed, so she has the other half of the boxes. Half of the boxes is (x + 8)/2. She has now 17 boxes, so (x + 8)/2 = 17.
(x + 8)/2 = 17
Multiply both sides by 2.
x + 8 = 34
Subtract 8 from both sides.
x = 26
She started with 26 boxes.

Pick one answer only.
==========================================================
Explanation:
The sample space is the set of all possible outcomes. In this case, the outcomes consist of values between 1 and 6
S = sample space
S = {1,2,3,4,5,6}
There are 6 items here. Let B = 6.
We want to roll a number greater than 4, so the event space we're after is
E = {5,6}
which consists of 2 items. Let A = 2.
The probability we want is A/B = 2/6 = 1/3 = 0.3333
So if you go with the fraction option, then you'll type in 1/3
If you go with the decimal option, then you'll type in 0.3333
