Lizzy: There were 180 apples in each crate. 12 such crates of apples were delivered to a factory. 160 apples were rotten and had to be thrown away. The remaining apples were packed into boxes of 20 apples each. How many boxes of apples were there?.
Me: Hmmm, let me think. I think this is the detailed solution:

The total number of apples delivered was: 180 apples x 12 crates = 2160 apples. So, the number of remaining apples after throwing away the rotten ones was: 2160 apples – 160 apples = 2000 apples. And now, we can find the total number of boxes of apples by dividing the remaining number of apples by the number of apples per box: 2000 apples / 20 apples / box = 100 boxes of apples. Final answer: 100.
