Question

The students from two 3rd grade classes are

going on a field trip. There are 43 students.
Five students can ride in each car. How many
cars are needed?

Answer 1

9 cars

Explanation:

43/5 = 8.6 (round up because you cant have just a part of a person) ~ 9

Answer 2

Answer: 9

Explanation:

5 students can ride in each car.

43 students total.

43 divided by 5 you'd get 8.6 but you can not use point 6 of a car its impossible so if you rounded it to the nearest tenths it would be nine (9) because point 5 is half and its 8.6 so it's rounded to 9
