Question

Describe which strategy you would use to divide 48 by 8

Answer 1

You can use a real life problem to solve the question like so:

Say for example you have 48 marbles and you want to gift an EQUAL amount to your 8 friends. You can equally give them out by giving one to each friend until you run out. Therefore, you are dividing 48 marbles amongst 8 people.

You would give 6 to each friend.
