15. Jack won 65 lollipops playing basketball at the county fair. At school he gave four to every student in his math class. He only has 1 remaining. How many students are in his class?(1 point)Responses
To find the number of students in Jack's math class, we can divide the total number of lollipops he won (65) by the number of lollipops he gave to each student (4), and then subtract the remaining lollipop (1).
Number of students in Jack's math class = (65 / 4) - 1
Number of students in Jack's math class = 16 - 1
Number of students in Jack's math class = 15
Therefore, there are 15 students in Jack's math class.
To find the number of students in Jack's math class, we can subtract the remaining lollipops from the total number of lollipops Jack won and then divide by the number of lollipops given to each student.
Total lollipops won - Remaining lollipops = Total lollipops given to students
65 lollipops - 1 lollipop = 64 lollipops given to students
Now we can divide the total lollipops given to students by the number of lollipops given to each student to find the number of students in Jack's math class.
Number of students = Total lollipops given to students / Lollipops given per student
Number of students = 64 lollipops / 4 lollipops per student
Number of students = 16 students
Therefore, there are 16 students in Jack's math class.
To figure out how many students are in Jack's math class, we need to divide the number of lollipops he won by the number of lollipops he gave to each student, and then subtract the remaining lollipop.
First, let's calculate the number of lollipops Jack gave to the students. Jack gave four lollipops to each student in his math class, and he has 1 lollipop remaining. So we need to subtract 1 from the total number of lollipops he won.
65 lollipops - 1 remaining lollipop = 64 lollipops given to the students
Next, we can divide the total number of lollipops Jack gave to the students by the number of lollipops each student received.
64 lollipops ÷ 4 lollipops per student = 16 students
Therefore, there are 16 students in Jack's math class.
