Answer:
There will be 8 groups of 6 students, and the total of chaperones needed will be 9.
Step-by-step explanation:
As we are said that there are 53 students going on a field trip, and we have to <u>divide them into groups of 6 students</u>, we just calculate
wich means that <em>we will have </em>8 groups of 6 students (taking the integer of 8.83), and that <em>there is a remanent of 5 students (wich is smaller than 6)</em>. This last affirmation we can know by calculating
Finally <u>we have 8 groups of 6 students each, and 1 group of 5 students, wich means that we have 9 groups in total</u>, so if we have to assigne 1 chaperone to every group, we need a total of 9 chaperones.
