Acamper has 6 storage compartments. each compartment can hold 3 sleeping bags. if there are 17 sleeping bags to be stired, how many comoartments will be usef? how many sleeping bags will ne in the compartment that is nit completely filled?

The camper will use all 6 storage compartments, with 2 sleeping bags in the one that is not completely filled.

Step-by-step explanation:

If 6 storage compartments can each hold 3 sleeping bags, 18 (6*3) sleeping bags in total will be able to be stored.

We only have 17, which is one bag less than 18, so we can think of it as having one compartment with one bag less than all the others (they have three). Therefore, there are 2 sleeping bags in that storage compartment.

We can also divide 17 by 3 to find how many compartments will be filled. The remainder is the number of bags in the one that is not completely full.

17/3 = 5 r2

But because the camper still needs to put those two sleeping bags in a compartment, they will use 6.
