Teachers divided students into groups of 3. Each group of 3 wrote a report that had 9 pictures. They used 585 pictures. How many students were there in all.

Question

4th grade Math word problem. 

Answer 1

Each group of three created (or used) 9 pictures, so that means three pictures per student.

 

Dividing 585 students by 3 pictures per student means that there are 585/3 = 195 students.
