Example problems from the on-level sheet

  • Ella has 30 pennies. Ella puts 3 in each case. How many cases does Ella need?
  • Mei dealt 48 coins into 6 sacks, the same number in each. How many are in each sack?
  • Amara packs 24 stamps into crates of 6. How many crates does that make?

Every sheet is generated, so the numbers are different each time you make one.
