Scenarios include sorting pencils into equal cups, dividing trading cards into binders and stacks, filling shelves with books, loading songs onto discs, making bracelets with beads, and arranging chairs into equal rows. Each problem presents a total and a fixed group size, requiring students to find how many groups, cups, shelves, discs, stacks, bracelets, or rows are formed.
