Kerry is ready to celebrate his birthday and wants to have three cakes with his age in candles on each of them. Candles come in boxes of 12 and cost $2.5 a box. If the candles cost $5, how old is Kerry?
He needed 2 boxes of candles, because 5 / 2.5 = <T>divide(5, 2.5)=2.0
He needed 24 candles because 2 x 12 = <T>multiply(2, 12)=24
He is 8 because 24 / 3 = <T>divide(24, 3)=8.0
