Algebra-1

To find out the number of groups that can be formed, we can set up the inequality.

Let x represent the number of groups.

There are 40 students and x groups, so there are 40/x students in each group and each group can have no more than 8 students, the inequality is: 40/x ≤ 8.

Then, solve for x:

40/x ≤ 8
