Word Problems

The situations which involve equal distribution, equal regrouping, inverse of multiplication
or repeated subtraction of the same quantity from a given quantity involve the operation of
division.

Let’s Attempt

Example: A factory produces 16,56,000 balls in a year. 576 balls are packed in a carton.
How many cartons are required to pack the balls produced in that year?
Solution: Number of balls produced during the year = 16,56,000 2 8 7 5

Number of balls packed in one carton = 576 576 1 6 5 6 0 0 0
Number of cartons required for packing 16,56,000 balls – 1 1 5 2
5 0 4 0
= 16,56,000 ÷ 576 = 2875 – 4 6 0 8
2875 cartons are required. 4 3 2 0
– 4 0 3 2
