    The equation to find the sum of interior angles of a n-sided polygon is:

    (n - 2) * 180

    So, we don't know what n is but we can make it look like this:

    (n - 2) * 180 = 8,280

    Solve for n.

    (n - 2) * 180 = 8,280

    ~Divide 180 to both sides

    (n - 2) * 180/180 = 8,280/180

    ~Simplify

    n - 2 = 46

    ~Add 2 to both sides

    n - 2 + 2 = 46 + 2

    ~Simplify

    n = 48

    Therefore, the polygon has 48 sides.

    Best of Luck!
