18 diveded by 3 = 6
Reply:Well that would be 6! good luck and be easy on your brother... show him 18 pennies in 3 groups of 6 and try explaining that way :-)
Reply:llen,





One third of 18 is 6... six plants equal one third of the total amount of plants in your garden..
Reply:Prove he's wrong.





Go find 18 items. Then make 3 equal piles and make your brother count one of the piles.
Reply:6
