Answer 1

Answer:

$10\frac {5}{6}$ boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that pens received from the parents' society $= 4 \frac 1 4$ boxes.

Pens received from the Student Society $= 2 \frac 56$ boxes.

Pens received as gift boxes $= 3 \frac 3 4$ boxes.

So, the total number of boxes of pens received $= 4 \frac 1 4 + 2 \frac 56 + 3 \frac 3 4$ boxes

$=\frac {17}{4} + \frac {17}{6} +\frac{15}{4}\\\\=\frac {65}{6}\\\\=10\frac {5}{6}.$

Hence, the total number of boxes of pens received $= 10\frac {5}{6}$ boxes.
