Martin has 128 pencils that he is putting
into boxes. Each box holds 6 pencils. If he
puts all the pencils into boxes, how many
more pencils will he need to fill the last box
completely?

Respuesta :

128 pencils divided by 6 pencils that can be put in a box; 128÷6=21 with a remainder of 3

Martin needs 3 more pencils for the last box, beacuse he has 3 leftovers and 6 can go into the box. 6-3=3
