    Answer:

    D.
    The store will need exactly 38 boxes for the shipment, with  1/3 pound of clay going into the last box

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We need to divide the number of pounds by the numbers of pounds per box

    28 ÷ 3/4

    Copy dot flip

    28 * 4/3

    112/3

    37 1/3

    We will have to round up to pack all the clay

    38 boxes with 1/3 in the 38th box
