Question

Ty has 5 goats and 19 carrots. He gives each goat the same number of carrots, and he uses as many carrots as he can. How many carrots does Ty give each goat? How many carrots are left?

Answer 1

Each goat gets 3 carrots.

After giving 3 carrots to each of the goat, 4 carrots are left with Ty in total.

Explanation:

Here, the total number of carrots = 19

The total number of goats = 5

So, in the given condition:

19 is the DIVIDEND

5 is the DIVISOR

Now, dividing 19 by 5, we get:

19 = 5 x 3 + 4

Here, 3 = Quotient

4 = Remainder

So, by the given equation. we can say that:

Each goat gets 3 carrots.

After giving 3 carrots to each of the goat, 4 carrots are left with Ty in total.
