Question

Numerical expression represented by 48 students divided into groups of 6

Answer 1

The numeric expression would be 6 groups of 8.

Answer 2

That situation would be represented by a simple division:
we split the 48 students in groups of 6, that is:
48/6 = 8
which means that if we divide a group of 48 students in groups of 6, we'll have 8 groups formed
