Question

2. Pam is making fruit baskets. She has 30 apples and 24 bananas.

Answer 1

Answer:

Six  

Step-by-step explanation:

$\dfrac{\text{apples}}{\text{bananas}} =\dfrac{30}{24}$

Find the greatest common factor of each number.

Factors of 30 = 1, 2, 3,    5, 6,    10,    15,    30

Factors of 24 = 1, 2, 3, 4,    6, 8,     12,    24

The greatest common factor of 30 and 24 is 6.

Jane can make six fruit baskets if she divides the fruit evenly among them.
