Hi can someone advise me the model drawing and working for this. Thank You.
Just apply the guess and check method.
EDIT:
You can try the reasoning that if I were to add another 5 toys, each child would:
(a) have 11 toys perfectly; or
(b) there would be 30 toy soldiers left over if I were to give each child 8 toys
In essence, I'll be solving 11x = 8x + 30 (the original equation is 11(x-1) + 6 = 8x + 25).
It's probably way too advanced for P4 though.

Alternative solution is to take:
41-17 = 24 toys difference
11-8 =3 toys difference
24/3 = 8 child
8+2 (first and last/+ remainder) = 10.
