Answer:

Jacey has 48 rocks. Carter has 6 rocks.

If Carter and Jacey are the only factor owners of 54 rocks

We divide 48 by 8 = 6 rocks: 42 difference;

Which is also 54  as 6 + 48 = 54

They now have 48 difference

6,6, 6,6, 6,6, 6,6 = 48

We see 48 - 6 = 42.

We also see 48 + 6 = 54

54=6 = 48

48 difference is the denominating divider; meaning 48/8 = 6 is how we first find the answer before adding on the 6 to show the difference of 8 equal shares.
