Answer:
10 envelopes
Explanation:
What we know:
- There are 3 drawings for each envelope
- There are 28 drawings in total
To find out the number of envelopes Declan would need, we divide 28 by 3 (check the picture attached).
28÷3=9 R1
28 divided by 3 gives us 9 with a remainder of 1, which means if Declan had 9 envelopes, he would be able to fit 3 drawings in each with 1 drawing left over. He would need a 10th envelope to use for the last drawing.
Therefore, Declan would need 10 envelopes to mail all the drawings to his grandma.
I hope this helps! Happy holidays :)
