Question

In a town, there are 83 clinics serving the population of 24,742. The population served per clinic is _____________.  

  1. 300
  2. 350
  3. 400
  4. 450

hintHint:

When you divide multiples of 10, 100, and 1,000 knowing your basic facts and place-value, patterns can help you find the answer.

The correct answer is: 300


    Given comma
Total space number space of space clinics space in space town space equals space 83
Population space served space by space the space clinics space in space total space equals space 24742

To space find comma
The space population space served space per space clinic

Here comma
We space need space to space divide space total space population space by space the space total space number space of space clinics space in space town.
Hence comma
it space will space be space 24742 space divided by space 83

Here space first comma space we space need space to space find space the space compatible space numbers space for space both.
Hence comma
24742 space is space close space to space its space hundreds space place. space So comma space 24742 space rounds space to space 24000.
83 space is space close space to space its space tens space place. space So comma space 83 space rounds space to space 80. space space
therefore space 24000 space and space 80 space are space compatible space numbers.

Now comma space
Using space division space patterns comma
24000 divided by 80 space equals space 2400 divided by 8 space equals space 300
therefore space 25000 divided by 80 space equals space 300

Here comma
300 space cross times space 80 space equals space 24000
So comma space straight a space good space estimate space of space 24742 divided by 83 space is space 300.

Hence comma space she space will space need space 300 space shelves space to space put space the space earcuffs.

    There are 5000 oranges with a farmer. If he can pack 50 oranges in a box. The number of boxes does he needs in total is ________. 

    STEP BY STEP SOLUTION 

    50 oranges = 1 box 
    1 orange =1/50 box 
    so, to pack 5000 oranges 
    total box=  5000 cross times1/50 
    total box= 5000/50
    total  box = 100
    So, the farmer will need 100 boxes to pack 5000 oranges
