There are 155 sea urchins that are being collected for a few large aquarium displays. If a tank can hold no more than 50 urchins, how many tanks will be at their urchin limit, and how many urchins will be leftover?

hello,

155 ÷ 50 = 3,1

so, there are 3 tanks full and 5 urchins left over.

3 × 50 + 5

150 + 5 = 155
