Answer 1

To determine how many 178 kilogram books can fit into a box that holds 2818 kilograms, you would divide the total weight capacity of the box (2818 kg) by the weight of each book (178 kg).

So you would divide:

\[ \frac{2818 \text{ kg}}{178 \text{ kg/book}} \]

Therefore, the correct response is Divide.
