Answer:
42 strawberries are in each basket. 4 strawberries are left over.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find out how many she put into each basket, you need to divide 256/6. Your answer should 42.6666667. Round down to 42.
To find out how many are left over, multiply 42 x 6. You need to do this to figure out how many strawberries total she used trying to put them evenly into the baskets. Your answer should be 252. Then, you subtract 256 - 252. You do this to find out how many are left over. Your answer is 4.
16 pieces may be cut. This is because we need to divide 36 by 2 and 1/4 to find how many pieces hat can be cut. First, we need to change everything into a fraction (or improper fraction). 2 and 1/4 = 9/4 (if you need help trying to find out how to get this, just ask). Then, since we are doing division, we flip the 9/4 around to get 4/9. 36 times (it's not dividing anymore since we flipped the 9/4) 4/9 = 16 pieces. I hope this helps! :D
