Mr. Bryan's class has 60 students. 14 of the students stay for tutoring on Monday. If Mr. Bryan equally divides the students that stay for tutoring into 5 groups, how many students are in each group? Responses A: 3 B: 15 C: 12 D: 5
The number of students in each group would be the total number of students staying for tutoring divided by the number of groups.
14 students รท 5 groups = 2.8 students per group
Since we cannot have a fraction of a student, we need to round up to the nearest whole number.
Therefore, there would be 3 students in each group.
The correct response is A: 3.
