Emily bought 9 packs of candy necklaces to give her classmates at school for Valentine’s Day. Each pack had 8 candy necklaces in it. Emily opened one pack at a time. After her classmates took as many as they wanted, there were 40 candy necklaces left. How many packs did Emily open for her classmates?
Emily bought 9 packs of candy necklaces * 8 candy necklaces in a pack = <<9*8=72>>72 candy necklaces.
Her classmates took 72 candy necklaces – 40 candy necklaces left = <<72-40=32>>32 candy necklaces
Since each pack contained 8 necklaces, this means 32 / 8 = <<32/8=4>>4 packs of candy necklaces were opened.
