Question

There are
53
53 students going on an excursion to the museum. A group of parents have volunteered to drive the students in their cars. Each car can take up to
4 students.

How many cars are needed to get the students to the museum?

Answer 1

Each car holds up to 4 students. 53 ÷ 4 = 13 remainder 1, so 13 cars would hold 52 students and one more car is needed for the remaining student.

Answer: 14 cars.
