Answer: Bonnie can make 40 treat bags. Each treat bag has three pieces of Candy A, 11 pieces of Candy B, and 13 pieces of Candy C.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since there's no number of student's in her child's class, I did this:

I found the common factors of 120, 440, and 520. And found out that the GCF (greatest common factor) is 40.

120: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 30, 40, 60, 120.

440: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 11, 20, 22, 40, 44, 55, 88, 110, 220, 440.

520: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 13, 20, 26, 40, 52, 65, 104, 130, 260, 520.

After finding out that the GCF is 40, I took the numbers 120, 440, and 520, and divided them by 40.

120 divided by 40 = 3

440 divided by 40 = 11

520 divided by 40 = 13

Therefore Bonnie can make 40 treats bags with no candy pieces left behind.

Lucia has collected a set of data and calculated the mode to be 31. The set contains 87 numbers, but Lucia gets an email telling

miskamm [114]

The problem seems to be lacking a question. But looking for the same problem from another source, we're looking for the new mode after adding the 6 numbers into the data set.

Mode, in its most basic definition, is the number or data that is most repeated in a data set. For example, in {1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 3}, the most repeated number is 1. Hence, the mode is 1.

Now, going back to Lucia's problem. Prior to adding the 6 numbers, the mode of the set of 87 numbers is already 31. That means 31 is the most repeated number in the set. Checking the numbers that were added, since another count for 31 is to be added, even if the number of 23, 26, 28, and 40 are increased by 1. 31 will still be the most repeated number in the set. Hence, the mode is still 31.
