DIVISIBILITY
Dr davis wants to divide 8487 tongue depressors evenly among some containers. she has 10 containers but does not need to use them all. how many containers could she use so there are no tongue depressors left over?

i got 3
Answered by Ms. Sue
We're both right. However, if she only uses 3 containers, she'd have over 2800 tongue depressors in each. She'd have less than 1,000 in each of 9 containers.
