As all of the bundles have the same content inside, so assuming that there is x number of Fiction books and y number of Non-fiction books in each bundle.

Let n be the total number of bundles that my team can send.

There are 64 Fiction books, so

nx=64 ...(i)

Or x=64/n ...(ii)

also, there are 48 Non-Fiction books, so

ny=48 ...(iii)

Or y=48/n ...(iv)

Observing that the numbers x, y, and n are counting numbers and from equations (i) and (iii), n is the common factor of 64 and 48.

The possible common factors of 64 and 48 are,

n=1,2,4,8, and 16.

So, my team can send 1,2,3,4,8 or 16 bundles of books.

Now, from equations (ii) and (iv),

For n=1:

x=64/1=64

y=48/1=48

So, for 1 bundle the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 64 and 48 respectively.

For n=2:

x=64/2=32

y=48/2=48

So, for 2 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 32 and 24 respectively.

For n=4:

x=64/4=16

y=48/4=12

So, for 4 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 16 and 12 respectively.

For n=8:

x=64/8=8

y=48/8=6

So, for 8 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 8 and 6 respectively.

For n=16:

x=64/16=4

y=48/16=3

So, for 16 bundles, the number of Fiction and Non-fictions books are 4 and 3 respectively.

B, 190.
First you find the area of the circle (pi times radius squared) however, since you are given diameter, you must find radius by dividing diameter by 2. So, your radius is 9, then you plug it into the formula and you get 254.5. After multiplying this by 0.75 because you only want to find 75 percent of the area, you get the answer of 191m
