You have 27 roses you have 9 vases each vase has the same number of roses how many roses are in each vase

Answer 1

You have 27 roses that are going evenly INTO 9 vases. So you are DIVIDING 27 roses INTO 9 vases, or in other words, dividing 27 roses BY 9 vases.

So divide 27 by 9 to see how many roses are in each vase. (or another way of saying it: (9 times what gives you 27?)

Answer 2

You have 27 roses you have 9 vases each vase has the same number of roses how many roses are in each vase

You have 27 roses that are going evenly INTO 9 vases. So you are DIVIDING 27 roses INTO 9 vases, or in other words, dividing 27 roses BY 9 vases.

So divide 27 by 9 to see how many roses are in each vase. (or another way of saying it: (9 times what gives you 27?)

Answer 3

My favorite way to approach a math question is simply to draw a picture!

Step #1: Draw the picture

Imagine below each bracket is a vase... I will label each vase by a letter:

Vase A: [ ] Vase D: [ ] Vase G: [ ]

Vase B: [ ] Vase E: [ ] Vase H: [ ]

Vase C: [ ] Vase F: [ ] Vase J: [ ]

Step #2: Fill the Vase

Now I will go and add ONE rose to each vase at a time. Once I put the last rose in "Vase J", go back to the beginning to "Vase A" and add another rose. Repeat this until you run out of roses.

Here is what it may look like when you start to draw it. ( The * means a rose)

Vase A: [ * ] Vase D: [ ] Vase G: [ ]

Vase B: [ * ] Vase E: [ ] Vase H: [ ]

Vase C: [ * ] Vase F: [ ] Vase J: [ ]

The next rose I would add would be to "Vase D"

Step 4: Answer the question!

Now that my vases are filled, double check that each vase has the same number of roses.

Once you have double checked your drawing, how many roses are in each vase?

Vase A: [ * * * ] Vase D: [ * * * ] Vase G: [* * * ]

Vase B: [ * * * ] Vase E: [ * * * ] Vase H: [* * * ]

Vase C: [ * * * ] Vase F: [ * * * ] Vase J: [ * * * ]

Answer: There are 3 roses in each vase!

Answer 4

27/9 so each vase would have 3 roses.
