Answer 1

Answer:

3 ounces.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Me Zachary brings 264 ounces of water to basketball practice for the players to drink. Mr Zachary divides the water equally among the 9 players. We are asked to find the amount of water that is left over.

To find the amount of water that is left over, we will take out the largest multiple of 9 from 264.

Let us divide 264 by 9.

   9) 264(29

      18

         84

         81

            3

We can see that remainder in 3, therefore, 3 ounces of water will be left over.
