Question

Blake solved the following division exercise : 136 divided by 3 = 44 R4. Explain how you know the answer is wrong just by looking at the remainder. Find Blake's error and give the correct answer

Answer 1

The remainder (which is what Blake says is the remainder), can never be more than the number you are dividing by (the dividend), which in this problem is three.

Divide 136 by 3 and you will prove that answer is incorrect.
