Question

Henry and 28 classmates go to the roller skating rink . Each van can hold 11 students . If all of the vans are full except one how many students are in the van not full

Answer 1

you divide 29:11= 2 7/11
so you have 2 full vans and one with 7 students.
so the answer is 7

Answer 2

Answer: 7

Explanation:

Given:Henry and 28 classmates go to the roller skating rink .

⇒ Total classmates=1+28=29

Capacity of van=11 students

To find the number of students are in van which is not full, we need to divide total students by capacity of van

On dividing 29 by 11 we get,

Quotient=2, Remainder=7

As 29=2×11+7

Therefore number of vans which are full =2

the number of students remains after 2 van which are full=7

⇒ The number of students are in the van not full=7
