The harbormaster decides how many trips the ferry needs to make for 37 cars. The ferry can carry 8 cars at a time. What is the best way to interpret the remainder of 37 ÷ 8 so that all cars can cross the harbor? * Ignore the remainder? Add 1 to the quotient? Just use the quotient? Just use the remainder?

By adding 1 to the quotient.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Harbormaster needs to arrange tripe for 37 cars

in one go ferry can carry a maximum of 8 cars

trips = 37/8 = 4.625 trips

Since the ferry can't go in decimals so we need one more trip to carry all the cars. Hence the best way to interpret the remainder of 37/8 is by adding 1 to the quotient which will make 5 trips.

what are ur choices?
