The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of how many boxes are required for 720 table tennis balls when 24 boxes contain 2880 balls, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Find the number of balls in one box**: - We know that 24 boxes contain 2880 balls. - To find out how many balls are in one box, we divide the total number of balls by the number of boxes. \[ \text{Balls in one box} = \frac{2880 \text{ balls}}{24 \text{ boxes}} = 120 \text{ balls/box} \] 2. **Determine how many boxes are needed for 720 balls**: - Now that we know one box contains 120 balls, we can find out how many boxes are needed for 720 balls by dividing the total number of balls (720) by the number of balls in one box (120). \[ \text{Number of boxes required} = \frac{720 \text{ balls}}{120 \text{ balls/box}} = 6 \text{ boxes} \] ### Final Answer: Thus, **6 boxes** are required for 720 table tennis balls.
