Question

Hank ordered 58 t-shirts. He organized the t-shirts into 3 boxes. If he wanted each box to have about the same number of t-shirts, approximately how many t-shirts would he need to put in each box?

Answer 1

Well, if you divide 58 by 3, you get 19.33333333 repeating. So i'd say, there's approximately 19 shirts in each box!

welp

Answer 12

Im terrible at explaining this type of stuff, I've got the answer, not the explanation though.

Answer 13

There isn't much to this question! All you need to do is divide 58 by 3 since you are splitting all 58 t-shirts between 3 boxes. Since the answer is approximately 19.3, we have to round up since we can't have .3 of a shirt! And we can't around down because then what do we do with that extra shirt??

Basically yeah. Just show how you did the division.
