There are 158 fourth grade studnets and 139 fifth grade students going on a field trip. There needs to be one caperone for every 8 kids. Explain how to find the number of caperones needed for the trip.

Respuesta :

To find the number of chaperones, you could find the total number of students that are going on the field trip and then break this number into groups of 8.

(158 + 139)/8
297/8 = 37.125

You will need a minimum of 38 chaperones for the 297 students.  If there is any remainder(decimal) you will need an extra chaperone so the groups do not exceed 8.
