Samir · Answer 1

That is 15/3 which is 3 into 15 and your answer is 5

Madilynn Buchanan · Answer 2

The division operator is a way of sharing objects into groups of the same size. A way of thinking of the problem is, "How many times can 3 repeat itself before reaching 15?".

1 Time = 3

2 Times = 6

3 Times = 9

4 Times = 12

5 Times = 15

Awesome! That means that five 3's can go into 15. So, 15/3 = 5. The more you practice, the easier it will get!
