A student says: 9,999 ÷ 84 = 119 R 3, so 120 full boxes can be shipped. The company can ship only full boxes. What is the best correction?
A
120 boxes, because any remainder means you round up.
B
119 boxes, because only full boxes count and 3 tiles are left over.
C
3 boxes, because the remainder is 3.
D
84 boxes, because the divisor is 84.
