Question

Your school’s science club is making gift baskets to sell. The club has 350 individually wrapped soaps to put into the gift baskets. The club wants to put 3 soaps in each gift basket. How many gift baskets can the club make?

Answer 1

Your club can make 350/3 baskets. 350/3 is 116 2/3. The answer becomes 116, because 2 soaps cant get you a basket. You have to round 116 2/3 down.

Answer 2

116

Explanation:

`350=116* 3+2` (2 soaps left-over)
