Cheap Charlie likes to smoke cigars.
He cannot afford cigars so he puts five stubs (which he finds) together to make one full cigar.

One day Charlie was lucky to get 25 stubs.

How many cigars could he smoke?

For a bonus point; how many cigars could he have smoked if he had only found 20 stubs?

25 divide by 5=5

he could have smoked 5 cigars with 25 stubs.

with 20 stubs he could have smoked 4 cigars
