A city has 7204 recycle bins. The city gives half of the recycle bins to it's citizens. The rest of the recycle bins are divided into 23 equal groups for city parks. How many recycle bins are left over?

7204

7204 ÷ 2 = 3602

3602 ÷ 23 = 156 with 14 remaining

the 14 remaining recycle boxes is how many boxes are left.

So 14 is your answer. Hope this helps!
