Ethel is arranging rides so that 27 members of her club can go bowling. Some people can ride in a van that belongs to the center where they meet. The rest must ride in cars. If 12 can go in the van, and 5 can go in each car, how many cars will they need

First, take 27-12 to find the number of people who need to ride in cars.

27-12=15

Then, if each car can take 5, do 15 divided by 5, which will give you 3.

Therefore, you will need 3 cars.
