The box holds 20kg of carrots. How many boxes are needed to send 675kg

The box holds 20kg of carrots. How many boxes are needed to send 675kg of carrots to the store. How many kg of carrots will there be in the last box?

To solve this problem, we introduce a conditional variable “X”, through which we denote the required number of boxes.

Then, based on the data of the problem, we will compose the following equation: X = 675/20.

Solving this equation, we get X equal to 33.75 boxes.

This means that the last box will contain 675 – 20 x 33 = 675 – 660 = 15 kilograms of carrots.

Answer: the last box will contain 15 kilograms of carrots.
