Olivia picked 1,005 blueberries from the orchard’s bushes. She divided them evenly into 8 baskets. How many are in each basket? How many are left over?

Answer 1

To find out how many blueberries Olivia put in each basket and how many are left over, we can perform the division of 1,005 by 8.

1,005 ÷ 8 = 125 with a remainder.

Now, let's multiply 125 (the quotient) by 8 to see how many blueberries are used:

125 × 8 = 1,000

Next, we subtract this result from the total number of blueberries to find the remainder:

1,005 - 1,000 = 5

Thus, Olivia can put 125 blueberries in each basket, and there will be 5 blueberries left over.

In summary:

• Blueberries in each basket: 125
• Remainder: 5
