There are 122 fourth grade and 11 teachers going on a field trip

Mrs Reyes

Says they will need 8 busses for the trip

Each bus has room for 16 people

Write a division equations

With the total number of students and teachers going on the filed trip divided among 8 busses

Then solve

Is mrs Reyes correct that the students and teachers need 8 buses explain answer

Draw place value models to show

1534

For the first part of this question, you will write the following division problem to represent this situation:

(122 + 11) / 16 =

133/16 = 8.3125

Mrs. Reyes is NOT correct! You will need one more bus because 8 groups of 16 is 128, and you need to fit 133 people on the buses.

To show the place value models, you will need 4 individual boxes, 3 rows of 10 (30), 5 - 10 x 10 models (500) and 1 cube that is 10 x 10 x 10 (1000).

1000 + 500 + 30 + 4
