Anica packs stuffed animals into boxes. Anica has 13 stuffed animals, and each box holds 5 animals. How many boxes does Anica complete fill? How many animals are left ? Anica fills 2 boxes. 3 animals are left. How many boxes does Anica need to pack all the stuffed animals

Answer 1

Anica filled 2 boxes, each holding 5 animals, so she filled a total of 2 x 5 = 10 animals.
If she has 13 animals in total and filled 10 into boxes, then there are 13 - 10 = 3 animals left.
Therefore, Anica still needs to pack the remaining 3 animals.
Since each box holds 5 animals and she has 3 animals left, Anica will need another box to pack the remaining animals.
Therefore, Anica needs a total of 2 (packs already filled) + 1 (additional pack for remaining animals) = 3 boxes to pack all the stuffed animals.
