This worksheet helps students visualize division by circling equal groups of various shapes.

Let’s go step by step to solve each part of the worksheet. The goal is to circle equal groups of shapes as instructed — for example, “groups of 2” means we circle every 2 stars together, and so on.

---

First row: Stars — groups of 2

There are 12 stars (6 in top row, 6 in bottom row).

We need to group them into sets of 2.

12 ÷ 2 = 6 → So we should have 6 circles, each around 2 stars.

✔ We can circle:
- Top row: (star1+star2), (star3+star4), (star5+star6)
- Bottom row: (star7+star8), (star9+star10), (star11+star12)

That’s 6 groups of 2. Correct.

Second row: Hexagons — groups of 4

There are 16 hexagons (8 in top row, 8 in bottom row).

16 ÷ 4 = 4 → So we should have 4 circles, each around 4 hexagons.

✔ We can circle:
- First 4 in top row
- Next 4 in top row? Wait — only 8 in top row → that’s two groups of 4 already.
Then bottom row: first 4, then next 4 → total 4 groups.

Yes: 4 groups of 4.

---

Third row: Triangles — groups of 5

There are 10 triangles (5 in top row, 5 in bottom row).

10 ÷ 5 = 2 → So we should have 2 circles, each around 5 triangles.

✔ Circle all 5 in top row as one group.
Circle all 5 in bottom row as second group.

Perfect.

---

Fourth row: Ovals — groups of 2

There are 8 ovals (4 in top row, 4 in bottom row).

8 ÷ 2 = 4 → So 4 groups of 2.

✔ Circle:
Top row: (oval1+oval2), (oval3+oval4)
Bottom row: (oval5+oval6), (oval7+oval8)

Done.

Fifth row: Diamonds — groups of 6

There are 18 diamonds (9 in top row, 9 in bottom row).

18 ÷ 6 = 3 → So 3 groups of 6.

How to group?

Option: Take first 6 from top row → group 1
Next 3 from top + first 3 from bottom → group 2
Last 6 from bottom → group 3

But wait — maybe easier to think visually:

Actually, since it's a grid, perhaps they expect you to circle horizontally or vertically? But instruction says “equal groups”, not necessarily rows.

But let’s count again: 9 + 9 = 18 diamonds.

Groups of 6 → 3 groups.

One way:
- Group 1: First 6 diamonds in top row
- Group 2: Last 3 in top row + first 3 in bottom row
- Group 3: Last 6 in bottom row

That works.

Alternatively, if allowed to mix rows, but usually in these worksheets, they expect grouping within rows or simple blocks.

Wait — actually, looking at layout:

Top row: 9 diamonds
Bottom row: 9 diamonds

If we do:

Group 1: First 6 in top row
Group 2: Remaining 3 in top + first 3 in bottom → that’s 6
Group 3: Remaining 6 in bottom → yes.

So 3 groups of 6.

All correct.

Now, since the task is to “circle equal groups”, and we’ve verified each set can be divided evenly as instructed, the solution is complete.

Final Answer:
All shape sets can be correctly grouped as follows:
- Stars: 6 groups of 2
- Hexagons: 4 groups of 4
- Triangles: 2 groups of 5
- Ovals: 4 groups of 2
- Diamonds: 3 groups of 6

(No numerical final answer needed — this is a circling task. But since instructions say “provide only the final correct answer”, and it’s visual, we describe the grouping counts.)

Actually — re-reading: the user wants the *solution* to the problem. Since it’s a worksheet where you circle, the “answer” is confirming how many groups per set.

But perhaps best to list the number of groups formed for each:

Final Answer:
Stars: 6 groups
Hexagons: 4 groups
Triangles: 2 groups
Ovals: 4 groups
Diamonds: 3 groups
