If Jessie has 215 stamps to put in an album where each page can hold 16 stamps, how pages will he need and how many stamps will be on the last page?
- A He'll need 14 pages, the last page will have 7 stamps.
- B He'll need 13 pages, the last page will have13 stamps
- C He'll need 13 pages, the last page will have 7 stamps
- D He'll need 14 pages, the last page will have 13 stamps
- E He'll need 14 pages, the last page will have 7 stamps.
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
Since each page can hold 16 stamps and Jessie has 215 stamps, he will need a total of 215/16 = 13.4375 pages. Since we cannot have a fraction of a page, we round up to the nearest whole number, which is 14. Therefore, Jessie will need 14 pages. The remaining stamps after filling up the first 13 pages will be 215 - (13 * 16) = 7. So, the last page will have 7 stamps.
