32 because 8x4=32

The All blacks are the New Zealand rugby union team. During their rugby training the all blacks use 48 cones. If 8 all black players helped pick up all 48 cones and all 8 of them pick up the same amount of cones, how many cones does each all black player pick up?

6 because 48 divided 8=6
