Question

How can i do this problem? "The athletic department raised $14,500 to buy new football uniforms. If each uniform costs $258, how many uniforms can they buy? Explain how you interpreted the remainder."

Answer 1

14,500/258 is 56.2015504 blah blah blah. You can't have a fifth of a uniform. I would interpret it as they have a little money left over, but they can't buy another uniform.

So your answer is 56 uniforms.
