To find the number of students in Jack's math class, we need to divide the number of lollipops he has by the number of lollipops he gave to each student.
Jack gave 4 lollipops to each student and has 1 lollipop remaining.
So, the number of students in Jack's math class would be:
65 lollipops - 1 lollipop remaining = 64 lollipops
64 lollipops / 4 lollipops per student = 16 students
Therefore, there are 16 students in Jack's math class.
The correct answer is 16.
To find the number of students in Jack's math class, we can subtract the remaining lollipops from the total he won and divide that by the number of lollipops given to each student.
Remaining lollipops = 1
Total lollipops won = 65
Lollipops given to each student = 4
Total lollipops given to students = (Total lollipops won - Remaining lollipops) = (65 - 1) = 64
Number of students in the class = Total lollipops given to students / Lollipops given to each student = 64 / 4 = 16
Therefore, Jack's math class has 16 students.
The correct answer is 16.
To find the number of students in Jack's math class, we can use the information given in the problem.
First, let's determine how many lollipops Jack gave away to his classmates. We know that Jack won 65 lollipops and gave away 4 to each student in his math class, except for 1 remaining.
To find the number of lollipops Jack gave away, we can subtract the remaining lollipop from the total number of lollipops he won: 65 - 1 = 64 lollipops.
Next, let's divide the number of lollipops given away by the number of lollipops each student received (4 lollipops) to find the number of students in the class: 64 / 4 = 16 students.
Therefore, there are 16 students in Jack's math class.
So the correct answer is 16.
