Going Fishing (Solve multi-step word problems involving remainders where the context requires the whole number quotient

The video tutorial explains how to solve a word problem involving 17 friends who need to rent boats for a fishing trip. Each boat can hold five people. The solution involves dividing the 17 people into groups of five, resulting in three full boats and a remainder of two people, necessitating a fourth boat. An alternative method using division with a remainder is also demonstrated. The lesson concludes with a summary of solving multi-step word problems involving whole number division with a remainder.
