Answer:
<h3>a) 5 flowers</h3><h3>b) Trapezoid</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
For one flower, the following shapes are used;
6 yellow hexagons, 2 red trapezoids and 9 green triangles
If we are given 30 yellow hexagons 50 red trapezoids and 60 green triangles, to get the number of flowers we can make, we will find the greatest common factor of 30, 50 and 60
30 = 6*5
50 = (2*5)+40
60 = (9*5)+15
We can see that 5 is common to all the factors. This means that we can make 5 flowers if they were changed to 30 yellow hexagons 50 red trapezoids and 60 green triangles.
Since there are 40 trapezoids left and 15 green triangles left, hence the shape that would have n as left over most is trapezoid (40 left over)
