Level 4 Division

I did 298 divided into 4 to make 74.5 I know that can’t half toy but each shop will get 74 toy with 4 left over

B.   SHOW HOW YOU DIVIDE 629 TRICYCLES EQUALLY BETWEEN 6 SHOPS.

I did 600 divided by 6 equals 100 each and then I did 24 divided into 6 equals 4 with 5 remaining with 104 tricycles going to each shop

C.   Show how you could divide 567 robots equally between 8 shops.

I  know that 560 divided into 8 is 70 so the 8 shops with 70 robots with 7 remaining

D.   Show how you could divide 347 aeroplanes equally between 7 shops.

I know that 7 x 50 = 350  then I take 7 away so it 7 x 49 = 343

Now I know 7 x 49 =343  with 4 remaining

I am able to solve level 4 Dvision

Maths
