Jerod is making candles from beeswax. he has 132.72 ounces of beeswax. if each candle uses 8.4 ounces of beeswax, how many candles can he make? will there be any wax left over?

15 candles and 6.72 ounces left over.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jerod has the amount of beeswax = 132.72 ounces

Jerod is making candles from beeswax.

one candle uses the amount of beeswax = 8.4 ounces

Total candles can be made from total beeswax =

                                                                                = 15.8

With 132.72 ounces wax 15 candles were made.

In order to calculate the left over wax we calculate the amount is used in 15 candles

= 8.4 × 15 = 126 ounces

Left over wax = 132.72 - 126 =  6.72 ounces

Therefore, 15 candles can be made and 6.72 ounces wax would be left over.

my guess would be b and d, but i didn’t actually get out the pen and paper. lol
