Answer (144)
Total number of cars with Stephen = 24
Stephen gave 4 cars to his brother,
24-4 = 20 cars are left with Stephen.
Then, Stephen divided 4 equally among his friends.
That means Stephen divided 4 cars among the friends.
So, [tex]\frac{24-4}{5} = 4[/tex]
So, Stephen divided 4 miniature cars among 5 friends.
The expression [tex]\frac{24-4}{5} = 4[/tex] denotes the words given in the above context.
