Answer:

32÷8

Explanation:

Division is like repeated subtraction

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The problem that would repeatedly take away 8 from 32 is 32÷8

The same is true for 25÷5, it is asking how many times can 5 be taken away from 25, hence repeated subtraction
