The temporary

The temporary workers collected 358 kg of apples. They filled them into 8 kg boxes. How many boxes did they fill? Is there a box left unfilled? How many boxes did they need together?

Correct result:

a =  44
b =  1
c =  45

Solution:

$$\begin{gathered} m=358\text{ kg } \\ {m}_1=8\text{ kg } \\ n=m\mathrm{/}{m}_1=358\mathrm{/}8={\displaystyle \frac{179}{4}}=44.75 \\ a=\lfloor n\rfloor =\lfloor 44.75\rfloor =44 \end{gathered}$$

$b=1$

$c=a+1=44+1=45$
