This is another one for my "impossible math question" file. All of the answer choices are wrong. (None applies.)
According to the problem statement, the length you have marked "x" in the diagram is 15 inches. If the side length of one of the pavers is "s", then the Pythagorean theorem tells us
s² + (2s)² = 15²
5s² = 225
s² = 225/5 = 45 . . . . . . the area of one square is 45 in² (not 225 in²)
Then
s = √45 = 3√5 . . . . . . . the length of one side is not 5√3
so the perimeter is
p = 4s = 4·3√5 in = 12√5 in ≈ 26.83 in . . . . not 75 inches.
The area of the 6-block L-shaped path is
total area = 6s² = 6·45 in² = 270 in² . . . . not 450 in²
And the total perimeter is 14 sides, so is
total perimeter = 14s = 14·3√5 in = 42√5 in . . . . not 60√3 in

In cases like this where the answer key is incorrect, you might try asking your teacher show the class how to work the problem.
Answer:
5 friends
Step-by-step explanation:
Candy pieces = 60
Chocolate = 45
What should be the smallest number of her sister's friends for the distribution of candy and chocolate so each friend gets an equal number of candy pieces and chocolates in a way that there should not be left any chocolate or candy pieces left over?
To calculate this, find the lowest factor of 60 and 45
60:
Factors = 2, 4, 5, 6,
45:
Factors= 3, 5, 9
The lowest common factor of 60 and 45 is 5
The smallest number of her sister's friend so each person get an equal number of candy pieces and chocolate so there won't be any leftover is 5
That is
If there are 5 friends at the birthday party
60 candy pieces among 5 friends
= 60/5
= 12 pieces each
45 chocolate among 5 friends
= 45/5
= 9 each
