1. The problem is to divide 24 by 6 using repeated subtraction. 2. Repeated subtraction means subtracting the divisor (6) from the dividend (24) repeatedly until what remains is less than the divisor. 3. Start with 24 and subtract 6: $$24 - 6 = 18$$ 4. Subtract 6 again: $$18 - 6 = 12$$ 5. Subtract 6 again: $$12 - 6 = 6$$ 6. Subtract 6 one more time: $$6 - 6 = 0$$ 7. Count how many times you subtracted 6: 4 times. 8. Therefore, $$24 \div 6 = 4$$. Final answer: 4
