An old beggar collects cigarette ends from ashtrays and sidewalks and uses the tobacco to roll her own cigarrettes. She has this practice down to a fine art, knowing that it takes 7 cigarette ends will make one cigarette. Since she has collected 49 ends, how many cigarettes can she make from these?

correct.. it is 8
She makes seven cigs from the 49 ends and then she takes the ends from those 7 and makes one more, that makes eight.
