Question 913119: trying to help my nephew... its been a long time since I dealt with monomials.
Here is the two part word problem:
Brandon delivers newspapers in his neighborhood. on Sunday he must deliver 112 papers. Since he rides his bike, he separates the papers into smaller stacks and delivers one stack at a time.
1 - what size stacks can he make?

2 - if Brandon can carry no more than 30 papers at time and can return home to restock no more than 5 times, how can he organize the 112 papers?
Thank you for your help!

4 stacks of 28 would do it.
