So we basically reverse it. 56 divided by ? =4. So we divide 56 by 4 which is 14. So the number of friends is 14

Answer:

4n = 56 is the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 56 marbles to share with your friends.

Each friend gets exactly 4 marbles.

Let the number of friends be 'n'

The equation would be  [tex]\frac{56}{n}[/tex] = 4

By cross multiplication

4n = 56 will be the equation required to get the value of n

n = [tex]\frac{56}{4}[/tex]

n = 14

number of friends are 14.
