Question

Terryn has 25 one-dollar bills and wants to give an even amount to each of his two children. How many bills do each of Terryn's children get, and how many dollars are left over? Number of one-dollar bills each child gets: Dollars left over:

Answer 1

they each get 12 dollars and one dollar is left over because 25 is an uneven number

25 divided by 2 equals 12.50

Answer 2

Number of one-dollar bills each child gets: 12 dollars

Dollars left over: 1 dollar

Explanation:

25/2=12.5

so round down to 12 cause 13(2) is 26 and you only have 25.

so 12(2)=24.

Each kid will get 12 dollars and there will be 1 dollar left over.
