6 boxes of books with 1 left over

48 books divided by 7 books per box. So since 7 can go into 48 6 times to make 42, the remainder is 6 books are left out. 6 boxes are filled. I interpreted the remainder by subtracting 42 from 48. And that's all I did. :)

I hope you like this answer and have a good night! :D

How many sides does a regular polygon have if each exterior angle measures 30 degree

Nataly [62]

As the exterior angles always add up to 360, you can find the number of sides by dividing 360 by the measure of your exterior angle, 30. This gives you 360/30=12, meaning your polygon has 12 sides.
