pablo is making a sandwich for a picnic.He has 32 slices of turkey and 24 slices of cheese.If pablo wants to make the maximum number of sandwiches with the same number of slices of each, how many slices of turkey and cheese will be in each sandwich?

Answer 1

You find the HCF which is 8
you divide 32 and 24 by 8
which will give you 4 and 3 respectively
therefore there will be 4 slices of turkey and 3 slices of cheese in each sandwich.
and there will be 8 sandwiches...
