Well to solve for this, we need to know what number divided by 6 will give us 8.
Since we can't quickly find a number to divide by, let's perform the opposite order of operations; multiply.
6 x 8 = 48.
We have 49/6, and it takes 48 to get 8.
Subtract 48 from 49.
49 - 48 = 1.

You only need to subtract 1 from 49/6 to get 8.

I hope this helps!
