The Answer is B
because Greg splits his 32 toys with his three brothers including himself therefore that in total that’s 4 ppl splitting 32 toys . Each child would receive 8 toys

B) since greg is splitting toys evenly, he will divide. he also wants to split by including himself, so that’s where the +1 comes from.
