Sure, let's go through the problem step by step to understand how to find the solution:
1. Total Number of Pencils: Mrs. Reyna has 320 pencils in total.
2. Number of Students: Mrs. Reyna needs to divide these 320 pencils among 24 students.
3. Pencils per Student: To determine how many pencils each student will receive, we divide the total number of pencils by the number of students.
- If we divide 320 by 24, we find out the number of pencils each student gets when they are shared equally.
4. Divide the Pencils:
- 320 ÷ 24 = 13 with a remainder.
- Since this division isn't perfect, each student will get 13 pencils.
5. Calculate Extra Pencils:
- Next, we need to determine how many pencils are left over after each student gets 13 pencils.
- To find the number of extra pencils, we take the remainder of the division of 320 by 24.
- 320 % 24 = 8
6. Conclusion:
- Each student will get 13 pencils.
- There will be 8 extra pencils remaining.
Therefore, the correct option is:
OB) 13 pencils, 8 extra pencils
