Question

14 children get into teams of 4. children will not be in any of the teams.

• A. 2
• B. 3
• C. 4

Answer 1

The correct option is A 2

To find how many children are left out from the teams formed, we need to divide 14 by 4.

If we group 4 children to form a team, there are $14-4=10$ kids left.

If we group 4 kids from the ten, we still have $10-4=6$ kids left.

If we group 4 kids of the six left out, we have $6-4=2$ kids left.

Two kids are not part of any of the teams formed.

That is, we get 2 as the remainder when 14 is divided by 4.
