Sweet t has 1,258 staples that he will use to create art canvases. each canvas requires 24 staples. how many canvases can he make and how many staples will he have remaining

52 canvases can be prepared and 10 staples will be remaining

Step-by-step explanation:

Sweet t has number of staples to create art canvases = 1258

Each canvas requires number of staples = 24

Let n canvases can be prepared by these staples.

Number of staples used in n canvases = 24n

The expression representing this process will be

24n = 1258

n =

  = 52.42 canvases

Staples used to prepare 52 canvases = 52 × 24

= 1248

Remaining staples = 1258 - 1248

= 10 staples

Therefore, 52 canvases can be prepared and 10 staples will be remaining.
