Mrs. Farley had 490 buttons. She sewed 7 buttons on a shirt. 8 completed shirts had to be sealed in a box. How many of the shirts sewn were not sealed in a box?

6 of the shirts sewn were not sealed in a box

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to know the number of shirts sewn that were not sealed in a box

Now, if 7 is to be sewn on a shirt, the number of shirts made from 490 buttons will be 490/7 = 70
