Dividing Integers — Quiz

Question 5 • Grade 7 Mathematics

Which situation is best modeled with a division expression?

Answer
A
the cost per pint of raspberries after applying a $1 coupon if the normal price was $3 each
B
the total cost of a pint of blackberries that sells for $3 and a pint of cherries that sells for $4
C
the total cost of 4 pints of strawberries that sell for $3 each
D
the cost per pint of 3 pints of blueberries if the total cost was $6

Explanation

To find the cost per pint when 3 pints cost $6 altogether, divide the total cost by the number of pints: $6 ÷ 3. So the situation is best modeled by choice D, the cost per pint of 3 pints of blueberries. Choice A subtracts a coupon, while B and C involve adding or multiplying costs.
