A carpenter has 183 doorknobs in his workshop. Of those doorknobs, 95 are round and the rest are square. If he wants to place 9 square doorknobs in each bin, about how many bins would he need? The carpenter will need about bins.

Answer:

10 bins needed approximately

Step-by-step explanation:

Total door knobs = 183

Round door knobs = 95

Square door knobs = x

Total door knobs = Round door knobs + Square door knobs

183 = 95 + x

183 - 95 = x

88 = x

Square door knobs = x = 88

If he wants to place 9 square doorknobs in each bin, about how many bins would he need?

Divide total square knobs by square knobs in each bin

Total bins needed = Total square knobs / knobs in each bin

= 88 / 9

= 9.78

Approximately 10 to the nearest number of bins

Bins needed is approximately 10
