Answer: 20 groups

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Information given:

The speaker needs to make groups of 8 and there will be 160 participants attending the presentations.

Step 2. We are required to find how many groups she/he will create.

To find the solution, we divide the total number of people in the presentation by the number of integrants in the group:

Divide 160 by 8:


(160)/(8)

Step 3. The result of the division is:


160/8=20

To have 8 people in each group she/he needs to make 20 groups.

Answer: 20 groups
