3 goes into 29, 9 times with a remainder of 2. This is because 3 multiplied by 9 equals 27, which is the largest multiple of 3 that is less than 29. The remaining 2 is the difference between 29 and 27.
Well, honey, 3 goes into 29 a total of 9 times with a remainder of 2. So, technically, 3 goes into 29 nine times, but it doesn't fit perfectly so you're left with a little leftover. Just like that last slice of cake you can't quite finish.
Well, isn't that a happy little math problem? If we take 29 and divide it by 3, we find that it goes in 9 times with a remainder of 2. Remember, there are no mistakes in math, just happy little accidents!
