If you think about it, the question is asking us to find the greatest common factor, or GCF, of the two numbers, 24 and 18. 
First, find all of the factors of 24. 
The factors are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24 
Next, find the factors of 18.
The factors are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18 
List out all of the factors that both of the numbers have. 
The factors are: 1, 2, 3, 6
Whichever is the greatest of these numbers is the GCF. 
The GCF is 6, so the greatest number of groups he can make and still be able to win is 6. 
Hope this helps!

All you have to do with this question is find the GCF (Greatest Common Factor). You can do this by listing out all of the factors for each number.

For 18)  1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18
For 24)  1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 24

Then you find the largest number that both share, so for this particular problem that would be 6.

So your final answer would be that Alex can make a maximum of 6 groups to have a chance at winning the prize.

If you need further explanation, just let me know :)

Oliver works at a book store.He packed 20 identical paperbacks and 9 identical textbooks in a box .The total mass of the book wa
Natasha_Volkova [10]
Let x be the mass of the paperbacks and y be the mass of the textbook.

20x + 9y = 44.4 ----------- (1)
25x + 10y = 51 -------------(2)

(1) x 10:
200x + 90y = 444 --------(1a)

(2) x 9:
225x + 90y = 459 --------(2a)

(2a) - (1a):
25x = 15
x = 0.6 -------- sub into (1)

20 (0.6) + 9y = 44.4
12 + 9y = 44.4
9y = 44.4 - 12
9y = 32.4
y = 3.6 

So the paperback's mass is 0.6 pounds and textbook is 3.6 pounds

Next number in sequence 3 -6 12 4 20 ?
Artyom0805 [142]
-6 - 3 = -9
12 - (-6) = 18
4 - 12 = -8
20 - 4 = 16
The first difference is -9. The third difference is -8.
Maybe the fifth difference is -7.
That makes the next term 13.
