Question

A local orange grower processes 2,330 oranges from his grove this year. The oranges are packaged in crates that each holds 96 oranges. All but one crate is full. How many oranges are in the last crate?

Answer 1

Answer:

13

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of oranges processed by grower  = 2330 oranges

Number of oranges per crate  = 96

Unknown:

Number unpacked oranges

Solution:

To solve this problem, divide the total number of oranges by the number of oranges per crate;

  Number of unpacked oranges  = $\frac{2330}{96}$  

  Number of unpacked oranges  = 24 $\frac{13}{48}$  

The remaining unpacked is 13.
