Abigail buys two cartons of strawberries. One carton has 19 berries and the other carton has 26 berries. She wants to divide the berries into bags so there are exactly 6 berries in each bag. How many bags will have 6 berries?

Answer:

7.5 bag

Explanation:

Carton #1: 19 berries

Carton #2: 26 berries

^^add them up together to get hte total amount of berries! 19 + 26 = 45

She has 45 berries in total, then you divid it by 6 aka the amount of berries she wants in each bag 45 รท 6 = 7.5

When she divids them up she has 7 bags with 6 berries in each and 1 bag with 3 berries.
