Java Program: Cookie Packaging Calculator
39. A box of cookies can hold 24 cookies, and a container can hold 75 boxes of cookies. Write a program that prompts the user to enter the total number of cookies, the number of cookies in each box, and the number of cookies boxes in a container. The program then outputs the number of boxes and the number of containers required to ship the cookies.
📦 Problem Logic
- A box holds a fixed number of cookies
- A container holds a fixed number of boxes
- Given the total cookies, we calculate:
- Number of boxes required
- Number of containers required
- If cookies or boxes don’t divide exactly, extra box/container is needed.
import java.util.Scanner;
public class CookiePackaging {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Title
System.out.println("COOKIE PACKAGING CALCULATOR");
System.out.println("----------------------------");
Scanner sc = new Scanner(System.in);
int totalCookies, cookiesPerBox, boxesPerContainer;
int boxesNeeded, containersNeeded;
System.out.print("Enter total number of cookies: ");
totalCookies = sc.nextInt();
System.out.print("Enter number of cookies per box: ");
cookiesPerBox = sc.nextInt();
System.out.print("Enter number of boxes per container: ");
boxesPerContainer = sc.nextInt();
// Calculate number of boxes
boxesNeeded = totalCookies / cookiesPerBox;
if (totalCookies % cookiesPerBox != 0)
boxesNeeded++;
// Calculate number of containers
containersNeeded = boxesNeeded / boxesPerContainer;
if (boxesNeeded % boxesPerContainer != 0)
containersNeeded++;
System.out.println("Number of boxes required = " + boxesNeeded);
System.out.println("Number of containers required = " + containersNeeded);
sc.close();
}
}
Output
Sample Output COOKIE PACKAGING CALCULATOR ---------------------------- Enter total number of cookies: 2000 Enter number of cookies per box: 24 Enter number of boxes per container: 75 Number of boxes required = 84 Number of containers required = 2
📝 Explanation
- The program accepts:
- Total cookies
- Cookies per box
- Boxes per container
- It uses integer division to find:
- Required boxes
- Required containers
- If there is a remainder, one extra box or container is added
- Final results are displayed
