Looks easy - but cannot find my answer in the choices

Mr. Gifford wishes to put 372 eggs into cartons that
can hold 12 eggs each. If he has 50 empty cartons
and completely fills as many of them as possible
with the 327 eggs, how many of the cartons will
remain empty?
(A) 12
(B) 15
(C) 19
(D) 28
(E) 31

DO NOT KNOW THE OA

Since each carotn can hold 12 eggs, 327/12 = 28(rounded to next whole number). No. of empy cartons = 50-28=22 ??

What am I missing? Could the "327" be a typo of "372"?? Then (C) 19 could be the answer?

Thanks!

I guess that's a typo. If the grammar of the question is correct, then "The 327 eggs" doesn't make any sense, but "the 372 eggs" would make perfect sense.
