Solution

The correct option is A 3
Total number of action figures $= 7$
Number of action figures needed to make a whole group $= 2$
To get the number of whole group Bob can make, we divide total number of action figures by the number of action figures needed to make a whole group.
We get, $7 \div 2$

Quotient = 3
Remainder = 1 Now, Bob can’t make a whole group using the remaining 1 action figure.
Hence, We Just drop it.
Therefore, Bob can make $3$ whole groups.
