there were 19 hamburgurgers fo nine people on a picnic. how many whole hamburgers were there for each person if they were divided equally?
Divide 19 by 3. What is your answer?
the right answer is 2
You're right.
I should have posted: Divide 19 by 9.
To find out how many whole hamburgers each person received, we'll divide the total number of hamburgers by the number of people.
Step 1: Total number of hamburgers = 19
Step 2: Number of people = 9
To divide the hamburgers equally among the people, we perform the division operation:
19 hamburgers ÷ 9 people
Performing the division, we get:
Remainder: 1
Quotient: 2
So, each person would receive 2 whole hamburgers, with 1 hamburger left over.
