Question

Emma has 18 yellow flowers and 30 white flowers. She wants to split them into vases in equal groups. What is the largest number of the group she can make?

Answer 1

Answer:

The largest number of the group she can make is:

                                   6

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

Emma has 18 yellow flowers and 30 white flowers.

The largest number of groups she can make is the G.C.D.(greatest common divisor) of the two numbers.

we know that:

G.C.D.(18,30)=6

( since 18=2×3×3

and 30=2×3×5

Hence, G.C.D(18,30)=2×3=6 )

This means that there are 6 groups such that each group has: 3 yellow flowers and 5 white flowers.

Answer 2

6 groups,3 yellow and 5 white in each group
