The answer is 17 items in 5 groups.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have 20 pencils + 25 erasers + 40 paper clips; that's a total of 85 items.

Then we just divide all the items into 5 groups so we can have the same amount of items in each group.

85 items : 5 groups = 17 items each.

17 x 5 = 85.
