Question

Mrs. Wilkerson cut some oranges into 20 equal pieces to be shared by 6 friends. How many pieces did each person get and how many pieces were left over ?

Answer 1

 Each friend got 3 and there were 2 pieces left over, to find the answer you would do the following:

20/6 (20 divided by six) which is 18 and the remainder is 2

Remainder=Extra

Answer 2

Each friend got 3 and 6•3=18 and 20-18=2
So each friend gets 3 and 2 are left over
