Concept:Division as equal sharing means distributing a total quantity equally among a number of recipients (people or groups), so each gets the same amount.
Explanation:Let us examine each option:
- Option A: 10 biscuits in a packet, and asking for biscuits in 5 packets – this is multiplication, not division sharing.
- Option B: 60 toffees distributed to friends – the toffees are shared equally among the friends, so each friend gets the same number. This is a real-life example of equal sharing.
- Option C: 30 students divided into 5 equal groups – this is grouping, where the number of groups is given and we find the size of each group. Although it uses division, it does not involve sharing items like toffees; it is more about partitioning a set.
- Option D: "Divide 50 into 10 equal groups" – this is a mathematical instruction, not a real-life situation involving people or objects being shared.
Only option B describes a scenario where items (toffees) are given out equally to friends, which matches the concept of equal sharing.
Answer:The correct option is B.
