For some reason the groups program was deleted on your system as indicated by the output of ls /usr/bin/groups. The best way to restore it is to reinstall the corresponding package.

To find the package:

$ dpkg-query -S /usr/bin/groups
coreutils: /usr/bin/groups

To restore the corrupted package:

sudo apt install --reinstall coreutils
