1. How many groups of 10 students will there be? Explain.

2. How many groups of 9 students will there be? Explain

Answer provided by our tutors

The total number of students is:

121 + 116 = 337

We divide by 9 to find the reminder and the total number of groups:

337 : 9 = 37 and reminder 4

There are 37 groups in total out of which 4 are of 10 students and 37 - 4 = 33 groups are of 9 students.

1. There are 4 groups of 10 students.

2. There are 37 - 4 = 33 groups of 9 students.
