Answer 2

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1 box holds 7 books...

2 boxes hold 14 books.

3 boxes hold 21 books.

4 boxes hold 28 books.

5 boxes hold 35 books.

However, since there are only 30 books, the 5th box won't be completely filled up. This gives us the answer: If Lamont fills up each box he would have 30-28, or 2 books left over.

Hope this helps!
