Carleen has 104 pieces of candy leftover from Halloween. She would like to distribute them evenly to the 8 kids on her block. Write an equation to show how many pieces of candy each kid will receive.

8 + x = 104
x = 104 − 8
x = eight divided by one hundred four
x = one hundred four divided by eight
