Answer:
Pencils: 7 boxes
Erasers: 5 boxes
Step-by-step explanation:
She should buy 70 pencils and 70 erasers.
There are 7 pencil boxes for 70 pencils.
There are 5 eraser boxes for 70 erasers.
These are the smallest number of boxes she can buy without getting a fraction of a box.
The 15 lbs at $7=$105
So multiple 5x9 as a test and check results. 105-45=60
Here you can see that 60 is a factor of 6 by 10 so you got lucky and got the answer of 10lbs at $6 & 5lbs at $9=15 lbs at $7 average
I think when you divide decimals the numbers get bigger but when you divide by a whole number, they get smaller.
