Tracy is cleaning up after tiling a bathroom there are four open boxes of tile each box has 5/8 of tile remaining how many boxes of tile are left

Hm...boxes, tiles...math!

This is multiplication. But instead of crossing our fingers and multiplying the first two numbers you see, let me explain: it says that there are FOUR open boxes of tile. Ok...what else? EACH box has 5/8 of tile remaining. EACH!!! That means, to find how much is left for FOUR boxes, multiply 4 by (5/8)

(4/1) • (5/8)

(20/8)

2.5

Or 2 (1/2) [two and a half] boxes

Answer: the correct answer is 10step-by-step explanation: let the number be n, then the expression becomes,then“twelve more than the quotient of a number and two, decreased by four” iswhen n=4,we substitute 4 whetever we see n to get,we simplify to obtain,we further simplify to get,therefore the correct answer is c.
