Answer:

Each get 89 marbles and the leftovers are 0

Explanation:

We have to ditribute the 267 marbles for 3 people so divide 267 by 3:


(267)/(3) = 89

So each one gets 89

The leftovers are 0 because 267 is divisible by 3, means that if we divide 267 by 3 we will get a natural number ( no decimal part/ remainder=0)

remainder=0 → leftovers=0
