Answer: 9 band members will not be in the row of 12

Step-by-step explanation: The band director wants the band to march in rows of 12. There are 165 band members. How many rows of 12 can they form? How many members will not be in a row of 12?

so first divide 165/12 which is 13 remainder 9

so that means there are 13 rows of 12 with 9 remaining band members . if you want to check that you would do 13 X 12 + 9 =165
