Hi Vera,
You know fact families and you’re getting better at writing careful multiplication and division problems.
With this one you’d need to say, “He shared them evenly with his friends.” That’s what make division different from subtraction. With division everyone gets an equal amount.
Thanks for sharing all your thinking and putting forth the effort to do it all. I appreciate that!
