Mrs. Harrington bought 12 boxes of oranges at the market. She gave her mom and her sister 2 boxes of oranges each. Then she kept 1/4 of the oranges and sold the rest. How many oranges did Mrs. Harrington sell if each box contains 20 oranges?
How many boxes of oranges did Mrs. Harrington give to her mom and sister? ** Mrs. Harrington gave a total of 2 x 2 = <<2*2=4>>4 boxes of oranges to her mom and sister.
How many boxes of oranges did Mrs. Harrington have left? ** She then had 12 - 4 = <<12-4=8>>8 boxes of oranges left.
How many boxes of oranges did Mrs. Harrington keep? ** She kept 8 x 1/4 = <<8*1/4=2>>2 boxes of oranges.
How many boxes of oranges did Mrs. Harrington sell? ** So, she had 8 - 2 = <<8-2=6>>6 boxes of oranges to be sold.
How many oranges did Mrs. Harrington sell? ** Hence, Mrs. Harrington sold 6 boxes x 20 oranges = <<6*20=120>>120 oranges.
