Answer 1

Total number of cars with Stephen = 24

Stephen gave 4 cars to his brother,

24-4 = 20 cars are left with Stephen.

Then, Stephen divided 4 equally among his friends.

That means Stephen divided 4 cars among the friends.

So, $\frac{24-4}{5} = 4$

So, Stephen divided 4 miniature cars among 5 friends.

The expression $\frac{24-4}{5} = 4$ denotes the words given in the above context.
