A florist is putting 824 flowers into vases. He wants to put 8 flowers into each vase. How many vases will the florist need?

Question

I HATE HOMEWORK!

Answer 1

824 / 8

 

We can ease into it like so:

 

800/8 = 100

 

That leaves us with 24.

24 / 8 = 3

 

100 + 3 = 103

So the florist will need 103 vases.
