To find out how many butterfly kits come in each case, we need to subtract the number of kits left over after the festival from the total used last year: 417 - 63 = <<417-63=354>>354 kits used.
Since Ms. Rivera ordered 6 cases of butterfly kits, we divide the total kits used by the number of cases: 354 / 6 = <<354/6=59>>59 kits per case.
Therefore, there are 59 butterfly kits in each case.
Meadow Academy's spring festival is coming up, and Ms. Rivera is in charge of ordering the butterfly kits again. She knows she ordered 6 cases of butterfly kits last year but can't remember how many kits come in a case. When she checks the records, Ms. Rivera finds that the school used 417 of the butterfly kits last year and had 63 left over after the festival. How many butterfly kits come in each case?
