Final answer:

Each student will receive 2 cereal bars, and one student will receive an extra cereal bar.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how many cereal bars each student receives, we need to divide the total number of cereal bars (7) by the number of students (3).




  1. 7 ÷ 3 = 2 with a remainder of 1.

  2. Since the remainder is 1, one student will receive an extra cereal bar.



Therefore, each student will receive 2 cereal bars, and one student will receive an extra cereal bar.
