Tina divides 17 crayons into 3 equal groups. How many crayons will be in each group? How many crayons will be left over?
There will be 5 in each group with 2 crayons left over.
or, 4 in each group, with 5 left over.
or, 2 in each group, with 11 left over
Hi! is correct, if you want the maximum number of groups, but you did not say that.
To find out how many crayons will be in each group, you need to divide the total number of crayons (17) by the number of groups (3).
Dividing 17 by 3 gives you a quotient of 5, and a remainder of 2.
Therefore, each group will have 5 crayons, and there will be 2 crayons left over.
