Veronica is buying donuts for her coworkers. She wants to buy enough so that her 36 coworkers will each get two donuts. Donuts come in boxes of 8. How many boxes does Veronica need to buy?

Answer 1

Veronica needs to buy 36 coworkers * 2 donuts = 72 donuts in total.
Since donuts come in boxes of 8, Veronica needs to buy 72 donuts / 8 donuts per box = 9 boxes of donuts.
Therefore, Veronica needs to buy 9 boxes of donuts.
