Oshea bought 200 basil seeds. He wants to plant them in planters. He has 4 large planters that can hold 20 seeds each. He also has small planters that can hold 4 seeds each. How many small planters will he need to plant all the basil seeds?
Thoughts? Step-by-step reasoning:
The large planters can hold a total of 4 * 20 = 80 seeds. This will leave Oshea with 200 - 80 = 120 seeds remaining. This means he will need 120 / 4 = 30 small planters.
Thus, the answer is 30.
