Question

2000 tennis balls are divided into packs of 3 how many full packs are they and how many more tennis balls are needed to make a full pack

Answer 1

Answer : The number of full packs filled are, 666 and more tennis balls needed to make a full pack is, 1

Step-by-step explanation :

Total number of tennis balls = 2000

1 pack contains 3 balls.

Total number of packs filled with balls = $\frac{2000}{3}=666\frac{2}{3}$

This means that, number of full packs filled = 666

Remaining balls after filling packs = 2

Thus, the number of balls needed for the last full pack = 3 - 2 = 1

Hence, the number of full packs filled are, 666 and more tennis balls needed to make a full pack is, 1

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have divide 2000 by 3.When we divide the quotient = 666 remainder= 2

No: of balls in each of the 3 pack = 666

2 balls are remaining. so we need  664  ( 666 - 2 )  more balls to make a full pack
