• A. 0
• B. 1
• C. 2
• D. 3

Answer 1

The correct option is C 2

Total number of eggs $=47$
Number of friends $=5$
Number of eggs each friend got = Total number of eggs $÷$ Number of friends
$=47÷5$
Let's divide it by long divison method.
Number of eggs each friend got $=9$
Remainder $=2$
As remainder is 2, Jack is left with $2$ eggs.
