PSS: Use a Table
When you solve a problem using division, there is often a remainder. When there is a remainder, you must decide what it means for the problem. You need to determine whether the solution to the problem is:
• The quotient without remainder • The next whole number greater than the quotient • The next whole number less than the quotient or • The remainder
STEP 1: Think what you know and what you are asked to find. STEP 2: Decide on a plan to solve. STEP 3: Carry on your plan.
