Hira decides to pack 165 mangoes in boxes that can hold 18 each. She decided to carry only fully filled mango boxes and give away the rest. Find how many mangoes Hira will give away. Correct Answer 3

Given:

Hira decides to pack 165 mangoes in boxes that can hold 18 each

Concept:

On dividing 165 by 18, the remainder will give the number of mangoes gave away.

Calculation:

On dividing 165 by 18, the remainder = 3

∴ The number of mangoes gave away= 3

18 × 9 = 162

⇒ 162 mangoes will be carried in 9 boxes

∴ The number of mangoes gave away = 165 - 162 = 3
