If everyone has one marble, you have passed them all out evenly so its 48
or maybe you mean the people have to have an even number of marbles?? If so its 2*24
3*16
4*12
6*8

Find the factors of 48 do you know how to do that? If not you 48 divided by certain numbers like 1 2 3 etc. If you get a decimal with that number then don't use it. Example 48 divided by 3 = 16 but 48/5 equals 9.60 so you wouldn't count that one

if you pass the marbles out to 8 different people giving 6 marbles each, you will have given out evenly without extras
