Classic problem — planting trees
5Flags are planted along a straight road every 5 m, from one end to the other. The road is 20 m long. How many flags?
20 ÷ 5 = 4, but 4 is not the answer. Draw it.
6Along a straight road, flags every 4 m from end to end. If the road is 24 m, how many flags?
More of it — a line, and a loop
7There are 9 flags, 3 m apart from end to end. How long is the road?
8Round a circular table, stickers every 5 cm. If the edge is 60 cm all the way round, how many stickers?
