Division with Remainders in Word Problems

Mr. Naran introduces a lesson on solving real-world problems using division with remainders. The scenario involves planning a field trip to the Portland Art Museum, requiring calculation of the number of buses needed for 370 students and 15 teachers. The lesson emphasizes understanding the problem, identifying key information, and using logical reasoning to interpret the remainder. The solution involves dividing the total number of passengers by the bus capacity, resulting in a remainder that necessitates an additional bus. The lesson concludes with a preview of future work.

What is the main objective of Mr. Naran's lesson?

• To learn multiplication with remainders

• To solve real-world problems using division with remainders

• To explore fractions and decimals

• To understand addition and subtraction

How many students and teachers are involved in the field trip?

• 370 students and 10 teachers

• 350 students and 20 teachers

• 400 students and 15 teachers

• 370 students and 15 teachers

What is the first step in solving a word problem according to Mr. Naran?

• Guess the answer

• List all numbers in the problem

• Identify the question being asked

• Start calculating immediately

What mathematical operation is primarily used to solve the bus problem?

• Addition

• Multiplication

• Subtraction

• Division

How many passengers can each bus hold?

• 60 passengers

• 70 passengers

• 90 passengers

• 80 passengers

What is the total number of passengers needing transportation?

• 385 passengers

• 400 passengers

• 370 passengers

• 395 passengers

What is the result of dividing 385 passengers by 80 passengers per bus?

• 5 buses with no remainder

• 4 buses with a remainder of 65

• 3 buses with a remainder of 45

• 6 buses with a remainder of 5

Why can't Miss Marley request only 4 buses?

• Because 4 buses are too expensive

• Because 4 buses are too large

• Because 4 buses are not enough for all passengers

• Because 4 buses are not available

What is the logical solution to ensure all passengers are transported?

• Request 3 buses and leave some passengers

• Request 4 buses and leave some passengers

• Request 5 buses to accommodate all passengers

• Request 6 buses for extra space
