Answer 1

Answer:

Shenika needs to get 3 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

7 friends x 5 cookies each = 35 cookies needed.

12 cookies in each box.

12 x 3 = 36 cookies.

Answer 2

Answer:

3 boxes

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the answer for the problem consider the amount of friends and how many cookies they will receive

First multiply 5 and 7 to find the amount of cookies she needs

5 x 7 = 35

She needs 35 cookies but there are 12 cookies per box

36 / 12 is 3

We are using 36 because it is the closest number to 35 that 12 can go into

She needs to get 3 boxes in order for each friend to get 5 cookies

Hope I helped :]
