Jasmine has 8 packs of candle wax to make scented candles. Each pack contains 14 ounces of wax. Jasmine uses 7 ounces of wax to make o e candle. How many candles can she make?
so first, you multiple 8 by 14 because she bought 8 packs of candle wax, that contain 14oz of wax. If Jasmine uses 7 oz per candle, then you divide 112, the product of 8 x 14, by 7 to get 16, which is how many candles she can make.
