get if they all get the same number?
How many sheets will be left over?

Answer 1

each student would get 9 papers and 16 would be left over

Explanation:

Alright so cross out "in his fifth-period math class to use." That just confuses you no clue why they added that. Now your left with "Mr. Ramirez got a box of 250 sheets of graph paper for the 26 students. How many sheets will each student get if they all get the same number? How many sheets will be left over?"

Now you want to equally split 250 sheets of GP for 26 students so you would divide 250 by 26.

I got 9 with a Remainder of 16.

So each student would get 9 papers and 16 would be left over!
