Interpreting Remainders in ECMS

The video tutorial explains the concept of division and remainders, illustrating how a divisor may not always divide a dividend evenly, resulting in a remainder. It uses two examples: Mickey making bows with ribbon and Goofy's ride for kids, to demonstrate when to round the quotient up or down. Mickey can make two bows with leftover ribbon, while Goofy's ride needs an extra turn for all kids to ride. The tutorial emphasizes understanding when to include or exclude remainders in solutions.

What does a remainder represent in a division problem?

• The dividend
