Question

Olivia picked 256 strawberries from the orchards fields. she divided the strawberries evenly into 6 baskets. how many strawberries are in each basket? how many are left over?

Answer 1

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.
