A pound of popcorn is popped for a class party. The popped corn is put into small popcorn boxes that each holds 120 popped kernels. There are 1,600 kernels in a pound of unpopped popcorn. If all the boxes are filled except for the last box, how many boxes are needed, and how many popped kernels are in the last partially filled box?

14 ; 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of unpopped popcorn = 1600 kernels

Kernel per popped corn = 120

Number of boxes needed :

Number of unpopped / kernel per popped corn

1600 / 120

= 13.3333

Hence, number of boxes needed = 14

Number of popped kernel. In partially filled box :

1600 - (120 * 13)

1600 - 1560

= 40

50-38=12
