Given: Sarah can fit 7 sweaters in a box
She has 38 sweaters
the remaining sweaters will stack on the shelf in the closet.
By dividing 38 by 7 we will get:

So, she will need 5 boxes, she will put 35 sweaters in 5 boxes
The remaining sweaters = 38 - 35 = 3 sweaters
So, the answer is: 3 sweaters will go in her closet
