Mr.Jackson has 20 quarters if he gives 4 quarters to each of his children how many children does he have?
I'd say 20/4 = 5
Of course, if he didn't give away all of the quarters, that could change things.
20 divided by 4 = ?
To find the number of children Mr. Jackson has, we need to divide the total number of quarters he has by the number of quarters he gives to each child.
First, let's calculate how many quarters he gives to each child. Since he gives 4 quarters to each child, the number of quarters he gives away in total is 4 * [number of children].
Now, let's set up an equation:
4 * [number of children] = 20
To solve for [number of children], we can divide both sides of the equation by 4:
[number of children] = 20 / 4
Simplifying further:
[number of children] = 5
Therefore, Mr. Jackson has 5 children.
