Question

There are 250 students in a play ground. Match the number of rows to the number of students in each row.

• A. 10 children
• B. 25 children
• C. 50 children

Answer 1

Total number of students in the playground = 250

1) Total number of rows = 10
Number of students in each row
= 250 ÷ 10

$\begin{array}{c}25\\ 10250\\ -\underset{–}{20}2\\ 50\\ -\underset{–}{50}\\ 0\end{array}$
Thus, there are 25 students in each row.

2) Total number of rows = 5
Number of students in each row
= 250 ÷ 5

$\begin{array}{c}50\\ 5250\\ -\underset{–}{25}2\\ 00\\ -\underset{–}{00}\\ 0\end{array}$
Thus, there are 50 students in each row.

3) Total number of rows = 25
Number of students in each row
= 250 ÷ 25

$\begin{array}{c}10\\ 25250\\ -\underset{–}{25}2\\ 00\\ -\underset{–}{00}\\ 0\end{array}$
Thus, there are 10 students in each row.
