Sharon's Floral Shop needs to mail 959 checks to the bank. If they can put 3 checks in each envelope, how many checks will be in the final envelope?

It would be 318. You would need to divide 959 by 3, it’ll come out with a decimal you would need to go to the fullest number, and since it’s checks you would need to go down to 318

Answer:

2 checks in the final envelope

Explanation:

359 divided by three is 319,6

319 x 3 + 357

359 - 357 = 2

I hope this was helpful!
