Answer: 4 & 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 24 over 5 to get 4 remainder 4.

Think of it like having 24 cookies and 5 friends to share them with. Each friend gets 4 whole cookies, and there would be 4 left over as the remainder.

The whole part 4 and remainder 4 then lead to the two '4's mentioned in 4 & 4/5

Here's another example:

32/5 = 6 remainder 2 = 6 & 2/5
