Stephen has a stamp collection of 72 stamps. He puts 9 stamps on each page in his album. How many pages does he fill?

Hello!

No there are several ways you can do this:

72-9= Until you get to 0

Or, you can do 72/9=8

Either way, he is going to fill 8 pages.

Hope this helps!

Divide 72 stamps by 9 stamps a page.

72/9

8 pages
