Answer:

9 Packs

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number of pencils required =250

Already available pencils=108

So the store actually needs 250 – 108 = 142 penils

Pencils per pack=16

So,

Number of packs for 142 pencils=142/16

=8.87 Packs

As the number of packs cannot be in decimal, it will be rounded off to next integer.  

Total number of pencil pack the store needs to buy=9  ..
