John needs 13 bottles of water from the store. John can only carry 3 at a time. What's the minimum number of trips John needs to make to the store? a. 3 b. 4 c. 4 1/2 d.5 e.6
13 ÷ 3 = 4 (remainder 1) Since John cannot make [tex] \frac{1}{3} [/tex] of a trip to the store, he would make an extra trip for the last bottle. 4 + 1 = 5
