Question

75 flags are to be distributed among 5 children equally.
Therefore, each child gets flags.

• A. 15
• B. 12
• C. 18

Answer 1

The correct option is A 15

Total number of flags with
5 children = 75

∴ Number of flags with 1 child = 75 $÷$ 5

Let us divide the numbers using
place value.

So, at first, we write the expanded form of the dividend, 75.


Let's divide each of these places with the divisor 5.


After division by place value, we add all the partial quotients to get the final answer.


The final quotient is 15.


Hence, each child gets 15 flags.
