Sweets Box Packer

Eight orders for festive sweet boxes: share laddoos fairly between guests, keep a house mix in a fixed ratio, scale a tray for more guests, fill a box by fractions, find the most identical boxes and top up a tray so it shares evenly. Set the numbers, pack the box and see the working every time.

How to play

Read the order. Each one asks for a number: sweets per box, how many of each, or how many boxes.
Set and pack. Use − and + or type the number. The box preview fills as you go.
Fair and in ratio. Fair means every box the same. A ratio like 2:3 means 2 of one for every 3 of the other. The working shows after each order.
Score. 100 per right order, +20 for each right one in a row before it (up to +80). A wrong order costs one of 3 lives.

Quick tips

Divide, then check the rest. 18 ÷ 4 is 4 each with 2 left over. Leftovers go on the family plate, not in one box.
Add the ratio parts. For 2:3, one mix is 5 sweets. Divide the box size by 5, then multiply each part.
