16 = 2^4

24 = 2^3 \times 3

\text{HCF =}2^3 = 8

Maximum number of packets = 8

16 ÷ 8 = 2
There are 2 pencils in each packet.

24÷8 = 3
There are 3 erasers in each bag.

Rosy can have a maximum of 8 packets. Each packet has 2 pencils and 3 erasers.

A paint mixture was formed by mixing exactly 3 colors of paint. By volume, the mixture was x% blue paint, y% green paint, and z%
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

Both statements are sufficient to answer the question

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

- The paint mixture has following proportions:

 Total volume of paint = T

 Blue:  x*T / 100

 Green: y*T/100

 Red: z*T/100

Find:

Statement 1: x = y

Statement: z = 60

Which of the above statement is sufficient to calculate the amount of green paint used

Solution:

Statement 1:

- The amount of blue paint used is:

                    1 gallon = x*T / 100

- x = y,

                    1 gallon = y*T / 100

Hence,

                    Amount of green paint used is 1 gallon

- The statement is sufficient

Statement 2:

- The amount of red paint used is:

                    3 gallon = z*T / 100

                    T = 300 / z = 300 / 60 = 5 gallons

                    T = R + B + G

                    G = T - R - B

                    G = 5 - 3 - 1

                    G = 1 gallons

Hence,

                    Amount of green paint used is 1 gallon

- The statement is sufficient
