Answer:

256/5=51.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

51 with a remainder of one, or 51.2

Step-by-step explanation:

She has 256 donuts and 5 friends. I assume this is for long division practice, so I will do long division.

5 | 256

Look at the first term. Does 5 go into 2? No. Bring down the next term.

5|256

  25

Does 5 go into 25? Yes! How many times? 5. The first digit of our answer will be 5.

5|256 = 5

  25

Now to get rid of the 25, we multiply the number we took for our answer by the divisor. 5x5 = 25. Subtract this from 25 and bring down the next (and last term).

5|256 = 5

  25

 -25

     06

Does 5 go into 6? Yes. One time. Repeat what we did just now with this term now.

5|256 = 51

  06

   -5

     1

Does 5 go into 1? No, it is smaller. Therefore we have a remainder of one donut.

If we are trying to divide ALL of the donuts equally, we will have to cut up the donut into 5 equal pieces. They would each be 1/5 of the donut, or 0.2.

So adding this, each friend would get 51 donuts, with an extra donut for Mrs Rivas, or each friend would get 51.2/51 and 1/5 donuts.
