Question

Emily puts away basketballs after the gym class. there are 15 basketballs, and each rack holds 4 basketballs. how many racks does Emily completely fill? How many basketballs are left?

Answer 1

emily fills 3 racks

3 basketballs are Left!

Explanation:

15/4 = 3.3

Answer 2

Emily would completely fill 3 racks of baskets balls and she would have 3 basketballs left over.

4(number of basketballs each rack can hold) multiplied by 3 is equal to 12. Meaning 12 of the 15 basketballs will be able to go on a rack, and there would be 3 left over.(subtract 15-12 and you will get 3)
