The owner of a toy store received a shipment of 1552 party favors came in 28 boxes the same number of party favors were in 27 of the boxes how many party favors were in the last box

Answer : (13)

Let x be the number of party favors in each (27 boxes)

Let y be the number of favors in last box

Given : total of party favors = 1552

27 boxes + last box = 1552

27x + y = 1552

We divide 1552 by 27, the quotient will be our x and the remainder will be y(number of party favors in last box)

Use long division

= 57 and remainder is 13

the number of party favors in each of (27 boxes) = 57

the number of party favors in last box = 13

So, there are 13 party favors in last box.
