Example Question #61 : Use The Four Operations With Whole Numbers To Solve Problems

Justin has $\displaystyle 4$ shelves in his room. Each shelf holds $\displaystyle 7$ toys. If Justin has $\displaystyle 30$ toys, how many toys don't fit on the shelves?

Possible Answers:

$\displaystyle 1$

$\displaystyle 2$

$\displaystyle 0$

$\displaystyle 3$

$\displaystyle 4$

Correct answer:

$\displaystyle 2$

Explanation:

To solve this problem, we first need to find out how many of Justin's toys will fit on the shelves. If we have $\displaystyle 4$ shelves, and $\displaystyle 7$ toys fit on each shelf, we can multiply those two numbers together to find out the total number of toys that will fit. Let's let $\displaystyle f$ represent the number of toys that will fit.

$4\times7=f$ $\displaystyle 4\times7=f$

28=f $\displaystyle 28=f$

Justin has $\displaystyle 30$ toys, so to find out how many don't fit on the shelves we need to know what is left over, so we subtract. Let's let $\displaystyle t$ represent the number of toys left over.

30-28=2 $\displaystyle 30-28=2$

2=t $\displaystyle 2=t$
