<u>Answer:

2 goes into 3 exactly 1.5 times.
<u>Explanation:

- If the question statement is put in other words, the same question could be asked as to how much is three divided by two?
- In an attempt to elucidate the problem, we can say that when a whole of two goes into three, it can be counted as two gone into three for one time.
- And for the 'one' that remains from which two did not go, it can be said that half of two can go through it.
- Hence, two goes into three exactly one and a half times.
