Question

If I put 4736 marbles into groups of 100, how many groups would I have? Show how you figured it out.

Answer 1

Divide to find out

4736/100 = 47.36

Therefore, we have  to round, and then we get 47. 

Answer: 47 groups and a remainder of 36. 

Answer 2

You divided 4763 by 100 (4763/100) and you get 47.36. So you would have 47 groups of 100 and 36 left over that can't fit into the groups of 100 (the 36 is called the remainder).
