The number of cookies and trays are illustrations of greatest common factors.

  • The number of trays is 8
  • 6 chocolate chips, 8 rainbows and 15 oatmeal cookies would fit each tray

The given parameters are:

\mathbf{Chocolate\ chip=48}

\mathbf{Rainbow=64}

\mathbf{Oatmeal=120}

<u>(a) The number of trays</u>

To do this, we simply calculate the greatest common factor of 48, 64 and 120

Factorize the numbers, as follows:

\mathbf{48 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3}

\mathbf{64 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2}

\mathbf{120 = 2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 5}

So, the GCF is:

\mathbf{GCF= 2 \times 2 \times 2}

\mathbf{GCF= 8}

Hence, the number of tray is 8

<u>(b) The number of each type of cookie</u>

We have

\mathbf{Chocolate\ chip=48}

\mathbf{Rainbow=64}

\mathbf{Oatmeal=120}

Divide each cookie by the number of trays

So, we have:

\mathbf{Chocolate\ chip = \frac{48}{8} = 6}

\mathbf{Rainbow = \frac{64}{8} = 8}

\mathbf{Oatmeal = \frac{150}{8} = 15}

Hence, 6 chocolate chips, 8 rainbows and 15 oatmeal cookies would fit each tray
