Friendly Groups in Division
How many groups of 6 are in 48?
48 ÷ 6 = 8
A friendly group is a number that is easy to divide, like 10 times the divisor. Subtracting these groups from the total helps you break a large division problem into smaller, simpler parts.
💡 Always look for multiples of 10, like 10, 20, or 30 times the divisor.
