The greatest number of teams can be formed that have the same amount of boys and girls on each team is 6

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that there are 54 girls and 84 boys

We have to find the greatest number of teams can be formed that have the same amount of boys and girls on each team

So we have to find the greatest common factor of 54 and 84

When we find all the factors of two or more numbers, and some factors are the same ("common"), then the largest of those common factors is the Greatest Common Factor

<em><u>Let us find the factors of 54 and 84</u></em>

The factors of 54 are: 1, 2, 3, 6, 9, 18, 27, 54

The factors of 84 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, 12, 14, 21, 28, 42, 84

In the above factors list, 6 is the greatest common factor

Then the greatest common factor is 6

So the greatest number of teams can be formed that have the same amount of boys and girls on each team is 6

Two equations are given below: a – 3b = 22 a = b – 2 What is the solution to the set of equations in the form (a, b)? (–10, –8)
aliya0001 [1]
Hi Kristian

a - 3b = 22
a = b - 2

We need to solve a = b -2 for a
First, we need to substitute b - 2 for a in a - 3b = 22
a - 3b = 22
b - 2 - 3b = 22
-2b - 2 = 22
 -2b = 22 + 2
-2b = 24
b = 24/-2
b = -12

Now substitute -12 for b in a = b - 2
a = b -2
a= -12 - 2
a= -14

Thus, the solution is a = -14 and b = -12

The correct option is the last one (-14,-12)


If you have questions about my answer, please let me know.


Good luck!
