Clue 5
Division facts (1-12) — the last clue
We found some shiny diamonds. We must share them equally with the village. Let us divide them up.
First solve each problem. Then find each answer in the list below and cross that sentence out. One sentence will be left — that's exactly what the villain did!
Step 1 — solve these
60 ÷ 6 = ?
84 ÷ 7 = ?
8 ÷ 8 = ?
121 ÷ 11 = ?
32 ÷ 4 = ?
40 ÷ 10 = ?
84 ÷ 12 = ?
72 ÷ 8 = ?
9 ÷ 3 = ?
40 ÷ 8 = ?
24 ÷ 4 = ?
Step 2 — cross out the sentence with each answer
1.The villain digs a deep tunnel in seconds, then eats a glowing golden apple.
2.The villain flies high in creative mode, then eats a glowing golden apple.
3.The villain digs a deep tunnel in seconds, then throws a shiny purple ender pearl.
