    (a)

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Basically we're trying to figure out how many groups of 32 students are needed to have more than 140.

    To do this, we take 140/32 (*BIG NOTE! No matter what our answer is, we round up. If we rounded down, we'd be leaving some students behind, and we don't want that.)

    140/32 = 4.375 (but remember, we round up no matter what)

    so the answer is 5, which is A.
