Question

4. Nicole has 3,874 pieces of candy to hand
out to her classmates. If there are 26
students in her class, how many pieces of
candy will they each receive?

Answer 1

Answer: 149 pieces of candy

Step-by-step explanation:

     We will divide the total number of pieces of candy by the number of students to find how many each student receives.

3,874 / 26 = 149

        Each student will receive 149 pieces of candy.

Answer 2

Answer:

149

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a simple division problem. Assuming each peer will receive and equal amount of candy, we know we have to divide 3,874 by 26 since we are dividing, or distributing the candy out to everyone.
