First find how many pearls Jamie collects per dive by multiplying the number of oysters by the chance each oyster has a pearl: .25 pearls/oyster * 16 oysters/dive = 4 pearls/dive
Then divide the number of pearls he wants by the number of pearls per dive to find the number of dives: 56 pearls / 4 pearls/dive = <<56/4=14>>14 pearls/dive
