250 toys divided by 5 boxes results in 50 toys per box.
An explanation for this is that 250 ends in a 0 in the ones place, so for an easier problem, the 0 can be removed.
25 divided by 5 is five. Add the zero back in to make sense, the number of toys in each of the five boxes if fifty.
Hope this helps,
