90units needed 8 units per case what's the #of cases & # of additional units

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

# of cases: 11

Additional units: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

If each case can hold 8 units, and we want to find the total # number of cases, we have to divide the # of units (8) for one case by the total # units (90).

As you can see, after dividing by 8, we have a total of 11 cases and a remainder of 2 units. The remainder will be the # of additional units because we cannot have another case filled with 8 units.

4x - 4 > 112

4x > 116

x > 29 m.
