    7 book cases

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Add 115 to itself until you reach past 360 (there is a remainder). 115 added 3 times is 345. 115 books=2 bookcases. So you multiply: 2*3=6. Since there is not enough room for all 360 books in 6 bookcases, you need 1 more, which makes it 7 bookcases.

    Answer:115books = 2bookcases

    360books=xbookcases

    115x=2*360

    115x=720

    x=720/115

    x=6.3 ~ 6bookcases
