Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

If you square 9 then you will get 81, then subtract 88-81=7

The total number of muffins are in the small  box is 7 and this can be determined by using the arithmetic operations.

Given :

  • A baker has 88 muffins.
  • He fills large boxes that hold 9 muffins each.

The following steps can be used to determine the total number of muffins in the small box:

Step 1 - First, determine the total number of large boxes.

Step 2 - Let the total number of large boxes be 'x'. Then the total muffins in a large box is:

= 9x

Step 3 - The value of 'x' should be the multiple of 9 and the value of the above expression must be less than 88.

Step 4 - So, according to the above step, the value of x is 9.

Step 5 - So, the total number of muffins carried out by large boxes is:

[tex]=9\times 9[/tex]

= 81

Step 6 - So, the total muffins in a small box is:

= 88 - 81

= 7

So, the total number of muffins are in the small  box is 7.
