Dr. Pepper is a math professor. Every semester, she buys each of her students a can of her favorite soda. She has 30 students in her class. If a box of cans of soda contains 12 cans, how many boxes does she need for her class?

4.

In the previous question, there were two possible answers, depending on how you saw the problem. You might have had a fractional box of sodas, or you might have decided a fractional box of soda doesn't make sense and rounded up to an integer number of boxes. Is it possible that both answers are correct, or is one answer correct and the other incorrect?
