We know that when 45 is divided into 1042 it doesn't come out as even.
So, we have to find a number when divided into 1042 it comes out even.

We know that each exhibit will contain x amount of pictures.

45x = 1042
Divide both sides by 45

x ≈ 23.15

But x have to be a whole number, so keep only the 23 part.
So, 23 pictures in each exhibit 23*45 = 1035

Not quite as 1042

Subtract 1035 from 1042.

1042 - 1035 = 7

Then subtract 7 from 45

45 - 7 = 38

The answer is 38

If art museum has 1042 pictures to split equally into 45 different exhibits then it will need 38 more pictures to ensure that there will be equal distribution of pictures among exhibits.

How to find number of pictures?

We have been given that there are 1042 pictures and 45 exhibits in the museum. We have to find the number of pictures that the museum needs to  ensure that there will be equal distribution of pictures among exhibits.

We know that,

Dividend=Quotient*divisior+ remainder

1042 can be written as:

1042=45*23+7

7 denotes the remaining pictures after division of pictures. So in order for equal distribution we have to make it 45 and to make it 45 we need to add 38 to it.

Hence if art museum has 1042 pictures to split equally into 45 different exhibits then it will need 38 more pictures to ensure that there will be equal distribution of pictures among exhibits.
