Answer:

Three sheets will be left over.

Explanation:

Well, if you have 80 sheets of paper, and seven students need it, you would first divide the 80 sheets to the seven students using the equation 80 ÷ 7 = 11.4. You won't be giving fractions of paper to the students so you would round to 11. If each of the seven students gets 11 sheets of paper, 77 sheets will have been used. 80 - 77 = 3. So, there will be three sheets left over.
