Question

Ron is planning to tour Europe with his friends for 20 days. He plans to visit 8 cities, and wants to spend the same number of days in each city. How many days can he spend in each city and how many days will be leftover? Choose the answer in the form (quotient)r (remainder). A. 2r 4 B. 3r 5 C. 5r 1 D. 6r 9

Answer 1

To solve this question, you must either divide 20 by 8, or you can try multiplying each answer by 8. To divide this, figure out how many times 20 goes into 8. It goes in 2 times, equalling 16. Now subtract 20 by 16 to find the remainder which is 4. Your answer is A: 2r 4. Hope this helped!
