    The correct answer is NO.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    There are total 32 actors. We need to divide the actors into equal groups.

    Requirement 1: There must be at least 2 groups.

    Requirement 2: There must be at least 6 actors in each group.

    Requirement 3: There must be less than 8 actors in each group.

    If we make groups of 6 actors each (group should have at least 6 actors), we will have 5 equal groups but would be left with 2 actors. This would violate requirements 2 as well as 3.

    If we make groups of 7 actors each, we will have 4 equal groups but would be left with 4 actors. This would again violate requirements 2 as well as 3.

    Lastly if we make groups of 8 actors each, we will have 4 equal groups. But this would then violate requirement 3 as each group has less than 8 actors.

    Thus we cannot divide 32 actors in equal groups according to the given requirements.
