Question

if Emily has 29 plants and she needs to give some away but divide with 5. How many will she give away and what is the remainder?

Answer my question :>

Answer 1

Hello, thank you for taking the time to post your question!

In order to solve this type of question you want to start by dividing by 5 and then seeing how many are left

On this one that becomes

29/5 = 5 , remainder 4

So she’ll end up giving away 5 groups of 5 plants and will end up having 4 plants left over

I hope that helps get you moving in the right direction! Feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions beyond that :)

Answer 2

Well Emily can give away 25 plants and keep a remainder of 4 plants.

Since she wants the plants to be divided into 5. so 5 x 5 = 25 and then 29 -25 will leave her with 4 plants.
