If a group of 9 people are going on a trip, the van can seat six people . The division equation that shows how many people that can get on the van is: 9 ÷ 6 .
What is the division equation ?
To determine how many people can fit in the van divide the total number of people 9 by the seating capacity of the van 6.
The division equation that shows how many people can get on the van is:
Number of times van is filled=Total number of people/Number of people the van can seat
Number of times van is filled= 9 ÷ 6
Number of times van is filled= 1.5
Therefore only 1 full van trip can accommodate all 9 people.
