Question

Terry but 34 boxes of chocolate bars and gave 18 of her boxes away to her older brother. If each box has 24 chocolate bars inside it, how many pieces did Terry still have?

Answer 1

Terry still have 384 peices of chocolate bars

Solution:

Given that Terry buys 34 boxes of chocolate bars and gave 18 of her boxes away to her older brother

To find: Number of pieces Terry still have

Total boxes with Terry initially = 34 boxes

Now terry has given 18 of her boxes to her older brother

So the boxes now left with Terry is:

boxes left with Terry = Total boxes with Terry initially - number of boxes given to older brother

boxes left with Terry = 34 - 18 = 16

So Terry has 16 boxes left

Each box has 24 chocolate bars inside it

1 box = 24 chocolate bars

So, 16 boxes = 24 x 16 = 384

So Terry has 384 peices of chocolate bars left
