ken has 16 marbles. He wants to put them into bags that hold 5 marbles each. Can there be equal shares of marbles with no marbles remaining?

There can not be equal shares of marbles be cause 16 divided by 5 is 3 remainder 1.

There can not be equal sharings since 16/5 does not equal a whole number! Good luck :)
