Answer:

3

Information:

Math Team has 12 members

Regional teams are made up of 4 members

Step-by-step explanation:

If you think about it simply, all you have to do is divide

Your finding how much teams can be made out of 12 people with the requirement of 4 being in each.

12 / 4 = 3

If your having a hard time with dividing you can just use repeated subtraction. So just subtract 4 from 12 until it ends in 0, and then count how much times you subtracted!
