### Instruction:
Kerry is ready to celebrate his birthday and wants to have three cakes with his age in candles on each of them. Candles come in boxes of 12 and cost $2.5 a box. If the candles cost $5, how old is Kerry?

### Response:
 Alikuwa anahitaji masanduku 2 ya mishumaa, ambayo ni mishumaa 24 kwa sababu 5 / 2.5 = <<5/2.5=2>>2
Ana umri wa miaka 8 kwa sababu 24 / 3 = <<24/3=8>>8
