ok so
represent number of packages as n
so the total number of uniforms is
(number of uniforms per package) times n aka
8 times n aka
8n
127 employees
each person needs at least 3, therefor
127 times 3=381
they need at least 381
therefor
8n>381
divide both sides by 8
n>47.625
you can't order a decimal box so you round up so you don't have too less
47.625 goes to 48
answer is 48 boxes
