Answer:

Total number of jolly ranchers= 140

Total number of candy bars= 60

Now , we have to place jolly and candy into gift bags such that no pieces of candy should left.

1. Find the ratio of jolly ranchers and candy bars

 = 140/60

= 7/3

So, possible combination are (7,3),(14,6),(28,12),(35,15),(70,30).

1.So,in combination (7,3), number of bags=\frac{Total candy}{(7+3)}

                                                                  =\frac{200}{10}

                                                                  =20


2. Number of Bags(14,6)=200÷20=10

3.Number of Bags(28,12)=200÷40=5

4.Number of Bags(35,15)= 200÷50=4

5.Number of Bags(70,30)=200÷100=2

Combination (1) in which there are 7 Jolly ranchers and 3 candy bars has the most amount of bags which is 20.
