(1 point)
0 4 cupcakes per box
0-7 cupcakes per box:
0 10 cupcakes per box
014 cupcakes per Dox

Answer 1

To determine which box size is NOT a viable option, we need to check which sizes evenly divide into 28.

1. 4 cupcakes per box: \(28 \div 4 = 7\) (viable)
2. 7 cupcakes per box: \(28 \div 7 = 4\) (viable)
3. 10 cupcakes per box: \(28 \div 10 = 2.8\) (not viable)
4. 14 cupcakes per box: \(28 \div 14 = 2\) (viable)

The box size that is NOT a viable option is 10 cupcakes per box.
