18 reams of paper were stored after distribution to the classrooms.

  • Total shipment of reams of paper = 288
  • Total number of classrooms = 30
<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

To determine the amount of reams of papers that were stored, the total shipment of reams of paper (288) will be divided by the total number of classrooms (30).

Thus,

=  \frac{288}{30}

= 9.06 (rounded up to 9, since half ream of a paper cannot be given to someone)

= 9 x 30 (number of classrooms)

= 270

Thus, the total amount of distributed reams of papers = 270

Determining the amount stored, total shipment (288) – total distributed (270)

Therefore,

= 288 – 270

= 18

Hence, 18 reams of paper were stored.

The above math problem was solved with the help of an order of operations i.e. BODMAS, and it represents Bracket, Of, Division, Multiplication, Addition, Subtraction.  

Significantly, Multiplication, Division and Subtraction were used to derive the solution to the math problem.
