1. Problem Description

The problem requires us to complete a table to find the number of boxes needed for 42 granola bars, given that 12 granola bars require 2 boxes. We need to determine the relationship between the number of granola bars and the number of boxes.

2. Solution Steps

First, we need to find the number of granola bars per box. We know that 12 granola bars require 2 boxes. So, we can calculate the granola bars per box by dividing the number of granola bars by the number of boxes:
GranolaBarsPerBox=GranolaBarsBoxesGranolaBarsPerBox = \frac{GranolaBars}{Boxes}
GranolaBarsPerBox=122=6GranolaBarsPerBox = \frac{12}{2} = 6
So, there are 6 granola bars per box.
Now we need to find how many boxes are needed for 42 granola bars. To do this, we divide the total number of granola bars (42) by the number of granola bars per box (6):
Boxes=TotalGranolaBarsGranolaBarsPerBoxBoxes = \frac{TotalGranolaBars}{GranolaBarsPerBox}
Boxes=426=7Boxes = \frac{42}{6} = 7
Therefore, 7 boxes are needed for 42 granola bars.
