To pack 45 shiris into boxes that hold 6 each, the clerk will need to do a little bit of math! Dividing 45 by 6 gives us 7.5, which means he can't have half a box. Rounding up, he'll need 8 boxes in total to ensure all the shiris fit comfortably. To ensure maximum efficiency, the clerk should first fill each box to its capacity, putting 6 shiris in each of the 7 boxes, which accounts for 42 shiris. The remaining 3 shiris can go in the 8th box, making it a snug fit. Voilà, all shiris are packed!
