Because cigars cannot be entirely smoked, a Hobo who collects cigar butts can make a cigar to smoke out of every 5 butts that he finds. Today, he has collected 50 cigar butts. How many cigars will he be able to smoke?
Solution (Highlight): He will be able to smoke 12 cigars. 50 butts = 10 cigars = 10 butts = 2 cigars. 10+2=12
