Question

149 cars are waiting to take a ferry across the channel. Each ferry can only hold 18 cars. How many cars will be on the last ferry?

Answer 1

Answer:

5

work:

149 divided by 18 equals 8.3
8 time 18 equals 144
149 - 144 = 5

Answer 2

Answer:

5 cars will be on the last ferry

Step-by-step explanation:

If you divide 149 by 8, you get 8.27.

Since each ferry can hold 18 cars, you multipy 18 by 8 which results in 144. Then you subtract 144 from 149 and you get 5 :)
