Question

Jeff has 242 DVDs. He has 2 shelves that can each hold 120 DVDs. Does he need to buy another shelf

Answer 1

Here's my way

Explanation:

he has 242, and 2 shelves for 120

120 + 120 = 240,

which leaves 2 off.

so, either you can put:

"Yes, because he has 2 remaining" (Not recommended)

Or

"No, because he put 240 on the shelves , he can put the other 2 somewhere else" (Recommended)
