    No, he can not.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Since each set of blocks has 18 blocks and Jeremy has 5 sets, you can find the total number of building blocks by multiplying:

    18 * 5 = 90

    If he wanted to divide them into 8 equal piles, you would take the total number of building blocks and divide by 8:

    90 : 8 = 11.25

    Since 11.25 is not a whole number, then the number of building blocks can not be dividing equally into 8 piles.
