Ms. santiago has many pens in her desk drawer. she says that if you divide the total number of pens by 1 2 3 4 5 or 6 you get a remainder of 1 what is the least number of pens that could be in her drawer

No number divided by 1 leaves a remainder of 1

since every number divides evenly by 1

divided by 2 leaving a remainder of 1:

1 , 3, 5, 7, 9, all odd numbers

divided by 3 leaving a remainder of 1:

1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 61

divided by 4 leaves a remainder of 1:

1 , 5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 61

divided by 5 leaves a remainder of 1:

1, 6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 31, 61

divided by 6 leaves a remainder of 1:

1, 7, 13, 19, . 61

looks like 61 , except the division by 1 part.

OR  

LCM of 2,3,4,5 is 60

to have remainder of 1 for all

60 + 1 = 61

your answer is 23/2 - 13.5

step-by-step explanation:

7/2 evaluates to

multiply x and 4.5

multiply x and 1

the x just gets copied along.

the answer is x

x

4.5*x evaluates to 4.5x

multiply 3 and 4.5x

multiply 1 and x

the x just gets copied along.

x

4.5*x*3 evaluates to 13.5x

7/2-4.5*x*3 evaluates to

  + 8 =

the answer is

7/2-4.5*x*3+8 evaluates to

the 1st digit is in the 100s n its 1

step-by-step explanation:

3,589÷18 = 199.389

so the first digit of the quotient is in the 100s n its 1
