Write the expression represented by n students divided into groups of 6

The phrase is " n students

into groups of 6"

Think about what makes sense.

Separating n students into 6 equal

groups means dividing n students into

6 equal groups. So, write a division

expression.

& separated / / underline{n / students} /

Division is not commutative. The order

in which we divide numbers matters.

So, while n / div 6 represents the

number of students in each group,

n / div 6 does not.

The answer is n / div 6.
