Last summer, sherrie found 1652 shells at the beach. She split them evenly between 24 containers and gave the remainder of the shells to her sister. How many shells did her sister get

his sister received 20 shells

Step-by-step explanation:

To begin with, he says that he divided the shells into equal parts, so we have to divide the total shells by 24 to know how many shells he put in each part

1652/24 = 68.83333

this means that each container has 68 shells

to know how many shells he put in containers we have to multiply the 24 containers by the 68 shells each one has

24*68 = 1632

Now to know the shells left over, we only have to subtract the shells in containers (1632) from the total shells (1652)

1652 - 1632 = 20

his sister received 20 shells
