Question

Five boys each have 8 marbles. If all

their marbles are collected and placed

into
8heaps, how many marbles will there be in each jeap ?​

Answer 1

5 marbles.

We first need to find how many marbles we have in total.

8 marbles * 5 boys = 40 marbles.

These 40 marbles will now be divided by 8, since we are taking the total amount of marbles we have and separating them into 8 different piles.

40/8 = 5

There will be 5 marbles in each heap.
