Pencil Distribution Among Students

In a class, there are 30 students. Each student is to receive an equal number of pencils. If the teacher has a total of 120 pencils to distribute, how many pencils will each student receive?

To solve this problem, we can set up a division. We need to divide the total number of pencils by the number of students. This can be represented mathematically as:

$$ ext{Pencils per student} =\frac{ ext{Total pencils}}{ ext{Number of students}} $$
