Question

Alexandria has been playing at the beach with 329 shells. She is putting shells into rows of 6. How many rows will she need if she wants to use all the shells?

Answer 1

Alexandria requires 55 rows to use all the shells.

Explanation:

Given:

Number of Shells = 329

Number of shells in each row = 6

We need to find the number of rows she need if she wants to use all the shells.

Solution:

Now we know that;

number of rows she needs can be calculated by Dividing Number of Shells with Number of shells in each row.

framing in equation form we get;

number of rows =
`(329)/(6) = 54.83 \approx 55`

Hence Alexandria requires 55 rows to use all the shells.
