Question

Chong is grouping 705 nickels into rolls of 20 nickels. How many rolls will she have? How many extra nickels will there be?

This is not for me. I am asking it for my sister and I am to lazy to do the math myself lol!!!!​

Answer 1

35 Rolls, 5 nickels extra

Explanation:

Think of it like so:

You have $705 in your bank account

Now many $20 Bills will you get from the ATM/Bank if you withdraw it all? The answer is: You will have 35 $20 bills.

What do you have left over? Take 20x35, than subtract that from 705

(705 - (20x35) = 5 nickels left over

Answer 2

Just divide:

705/20 = 35.25

There will be 35 roles.

Now to find how many left over, just multiply 35 times 20:

35 * 20 = 700

705 - 700 = 5

5 nickles left over!
