Division with remainders

Front

What is division with remainders?

Back

Division with remainders is a mathematical operation where a number (the dividend) is divided by another number (the divisor), resulting in a quotient and a remainder. The remainder is what is left over after the division is complete.

If a teacher has 20 students and wants to give each 4 pencils, how many pencils does she need in total?

Back

The teacher needs a total of 80 pencils (20 students x 4 pencils each).

Front

If pencils come in packages of 6, how do you calculate the number of packages needed for 80 pencils?

Back

To find the number of packages needed, divide the total number of pencils (80) by the number of pencils per package (6). This gives you 80 ÷ 6 = 13 with a remainder of 2, so you need 14 packages to have enough pencils.

What is the formula to find the remainder in a division problem?

Back

The formula to find the remainder is: Remainder = Dividend - (Divisor x Quotient).

In the context of seating arrangements, how do you determine how many will sit in the last row?

Back

To determine how many will sit in the last row, divide the total number of students by the number of seats per row and find the remainder.

Front

If there are 476 students and each row can hold 9 students, how many students will sit in the last row?

Back

When dividing 476 by 9, the quotient is 52 and the remainder is 8, so 8 students will sit in the last row.

Front

What does it mean to round up in a division context?

Back

Rounding up in a division context means to increase the quotient to the next whole number if there is any remainder, ensuring that there are enough groups or packages to accommodate all items.

How do you find the total number of items needed when given a per-student allocation?

Back

Multiply the number of students by the number of items each student receives.
