Question

Shawna won 40 super bouncy balls playing

horseshoes at the county fair. At school she
gave three to every student in her math
class. She only has 1 remaining. How
many students are in her class?

Answer 1

13

Explanation:

13 x 3=39. There is one remaing, +1 = 40.

Answer 2

13 not including Shawna

Explanation:

First, you have to take into account that the remainder is 1, so you must subtract 1 from 40, giving you 39. 39/3 is 13, so 13 is your final answer.
