This math topic focuses on practicing division within the context of counting legs of animals in groups, specifically spiders and octopuses known for having eight legs each. Each problem presents a total number of legs and students must determine how many animals add up to that total, introducing the concept of division as a method of finding the number of items in a group when the group total and individual item total are known. This set of problems is an introductory look into multiplication and division, leveraging real-world applied problems to anchor understanding.
