Fifteen students completed 80 puzzles. How many puzzles would 1

student complete? Round the answer to the nearest tenth. (1 point)

1 answer

To find out how many puzzles one student would complete, you can divide the total number of puzzles by the number of students:

\[ \text{Puzzles per student} = \frac{\text{Total puzzles}}{\text{Total students}} = \frac{80}{15} \]

Calculating that gives:

\[ \frac{80}{15} \approx 5.3333 \]

Rounding 5.3333 to the nearest tenth, we get:

\[ 5.3 \]

So, one student would complete approximately 5.3 puzzles.
