Let's break down the problem of dividing 66 by 5 step by step.

  1. How many groups?
    We are dividing 66 into groups of 5.

  2. Divide the tens so that each of the ? groups has an ? amount:
    There are 60 in 66, which can be divided into tens. So, we can divide 60 by 5:

    • \(60 ÷ 5 = 12\)

    This means we can make 12 groups of 5 from 60.

  3. Regroup the extra tens blocks into ? ones:
    After dividing the 60, we are left with 6 (since \(66 - 60 = 6\)). We have 6 ones remaining.

  4. The answer is ? remainder ?
    Since we made 12 groups of 5, we need to include the leftover 6:

    • This means \(66 ÷ 5 = 13\) with a remainder of 1.

So, if we put all this together: The answer is 13 remainder 1.
