같이 and 함께

What is the difference between 같이 and 함께?

They means "together (with)", but they means a little bit different.

같이 can be used for two more people or things.
For example:
- 친구와 같이 사업을 하다. (Make a business with my friend together.)
- 친구들과 같이 공부합니다. (Learn with friends together.)

함께 can be used for saying "together at once" or "together with somebody". 
For example:
- 온가족이 함께 여행을 갑니다. (All my family go traveling together.)
- 나는 동생과 함께 공부합니다. (I study with my brother together.)

같이 is more commonly used than 함께.
