Sometimes
in order to solve problems with large numbers, it is necessary to use a two-digit
divisor. Let's look at some examples! Solve on another
piece of paper, and then check your answer!
#1 A ship is traveling an 88 mile
long river at a speed of 21 miles per hour. At this rate,
about how
long will it take the ship to go from one end to the other ?
#2 If the area
of a rectangular yard is 351 square feet and the length is 39 feet,
what is the width of the yard?
#3 A
middle school band group of 56 students was planning a trip to
Toronto. To raise funds for the trip, they held a car wash.
If the car wash netted $448 and it was decided ahead of time to
split the money evenly, how much did each student raise?
