A shipment of 572 scented erasers has arrived at the school store. You want to sell them in sets of 15. How many full sets of erasers can you make?

Answer: so 572 divided by 15 equals 38.13.

if you round that to the nearest ones place you would get 38. (and also 38 is a whole number)

so you can make 38 full sets with 13 left over.

(hope this helps :3)

Answer: 38 full sets

Explanation:

If you want to sell them in full sets of 15 you would need to divide 15 by 572

The answer you get is 38.1333333. Obviously you cannot sell partial pieces of an eraser therefore you can sell exactly 38 full sets
