Example Question #3531 : Operations

 students are going on a field trip.  students can ride in each car. How many cars will they need for the field trip?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

When we have a set of something that we are splitting up into groups, we divide. In this case, we are dividing students up into cars. We will let  represent the number of cars they will need.

           

Our answer is  with a remainder of . This means that they will have  full cars of  people, but there is  person left over. So they need  cars in order for every student to be in a car.
