Create a division problem that has a quotient of 4 and a remainder of 10. Explain your process!
Choose any divisor greater than the remainder (10), multiply it by the quotient (4) and then add that product to the remainder and that number is the dividend of the new division problem.
Ex. (20 X 4) + 10 = 90 ... 90 / 20 = 4 R 10

Once upon a time Mrs. Schug wanted to knit scarves for her bulldogs. (They were very spoiled). Each scarf required 12 balls of yarn. If she had 259 balls of yarn, how many scarves could she knit?
259 / 12 = 21 R 7
Mrs. Schug will be able to knit 21 scarves (and she will have 7 balls of yarn left over).
