Cody saves all his nickles. today he is getting them out of his piggy bank and wrapping them to take to the bank. he finds he has 360 nickels. it takes 40 nicole's to fill each paper wrapper and make a roll. how many wrappers does he need? explain how you solved this problem and how you know your answer is correct.

Simple explanation:
Divide 360 by 40
360/40 = 9
Cody needs 9 wrappers.

3rd grader explanation:
Explain that Cody wants to divide 360 into __ groups of 40.
Use an illustration of separating things into equal groups (you can simply use separating 6 objects into equal groups of 2).
Explain that subtraction, multiplication, or addition will not help.
Tell him/her to use division.
Although 360 and 40 are large numbers, explain that the 0's can be removed into 4 and 36.
36 / 4 = 9
Since the answer is 9, Cody needs 9 wrappers.

Have an awesome day! :)

350 divided by 40 equals 8.75. He needs 9 because he fills 8 completely but has some left over. He can't just not fill them, so you would need an extra. 9 is the answer.

Ibelieve it's a. 2.2 - x = -10.85 (plz tell me if it's right : ) )
