Answer 1

Jack has 60 toys. He wants to store all of them in boxes. Each box can hold 9 toys. How many boxes does Jack need?

The key word is 'all'. There is a remainder because 9 doesn't go into 60 evenly. He wants to store all the toys, so he needs an extra box for the leftover toys.

Answer 2

4 divided by 18 = 4 multiply by 4= 16 =2 then add and bring down 0 =20 so 4 times 5 = 20 so = 4.5
