Question

after the school carnival there were 20 apples left over eight students shared these apples equally how many apples did each student receive​

Answer 1

They would have gotten 2 full apples each. There would be 4 left over. If they decided to split those 4 apples, they would have gotten 2 1/2 apples each.

Explanation:

20 ÷ 8 = 16 R 4

16 ÷ 8 = 2 (the full apples they got each_)

4 x 2 = 8 (split the 4 apples in half to make 8)

Therefore, each student would have gotten 2 full apples and 1/2 of an apple.
