Question

An auto transport truck holds 12 cars. A car dealer plans to bring in 1,006 new cars in June and July. If an auto transport truck is filled for each delivery, except for the last one, how many full truckloads are needed and how many cars will be in the last truck? 830 full truckloads with 10 cars on the 831st truck 84 full truckloads with 10 cars on the 85th truck O 83 full truckloads with 10 cars on the 84th truck 83 full truckloads with 12 cars on the 84th truck

Answer 1

To find the exact number of trucks that the car dealer will need, we have to do the long division of 1006 and 12, to get the residue, which will be the numbers that will go on the last truck.

Then, we have the following:

notice that we have the quotient 83 with residue 10, this means that there will be needed 83 full truckloads with 10 cars in the truck 84
