1. 576 books are to be packed in boxes. If one box has 24 books, how many boxes are needed?
Total number of books to be packed in boxes = 576
Number of books one box = 24
Then,
The number of boxes required to put 576 books = 576 ÷ 24
Hence, 24 boxes are required to pack 576 books.
2. 836 people are watching a movie in a hall. If the hall has 44 rows, how many people can sit in 1 row?
Total number of people watching movie in the hall = 836
Number of rows in the hall = 44
Then,
The number of people sitting in one row = 836 ÷ 44
Hence, 19 people are sitting in 1 row of hall.
A gardener bought 458 apple trees. He wants to plant 15 trees in each row. How many rows can he plant?
How many trees would be left over?
Total number of trees bought by gardener = 458
Number of trees planted in one row = 15
So, the number of rows he can plant = 458 ÷ 15
Thus, the gardener can plant 30 rows of apple trees and he’ll be left with 8 trees.
