Answer:
The farmer will need 7 crates.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that there are 71 pumpkins in total.
And each crate holds 19 pumpkins.
Let the number of crates required be "n".
The total number of pumpkins can be calculated by multiplying number of pumpkins in each crate with total number of crates.
Thus, the equation is
[tex]19(n) = 71[/tex]
[tex]n = \frac{71}{19} = 7[/tex]
Thus, the farmer needs 7 crates to hold total of 71 pumpkins.
