If you have 43 marbles. You divide them equally among some sacks. How many sacks must you use to get fewer than 8that marbles in each sack?
7 is "few than 8."
43/7 = 6 bags with one marble left over.
Since 43 is a prime number, it cannot be done exactly.
To find out how many sacks you need to use in order to have fewer than 8 marbles in each sack, you can use division.
First, divide the total number of marbles (43) by the maximum number of marbles per sack (8). This will give you the maximum number of sacks that can be used without exceeding 8 marbles per sack.
43 รท 8 = 5 remainder 3
This means that you can have up to 5 sacks with 8 marbles in each, and you will have 3 marbles left over. However, since you want fewer than 8 marbles per sack, you will need to use one additional sack for the remaining 3 marbles.
Therefore, you will need a total of 6 sacks to ensure that each sack contains fewer than 8 marbles.
