The greatest number of groups he could have made is 4 groups

Each of the four groups will have:

4 Squares each

7 circles each

Step-by-step explanation:

16 squares

28 circles

Find the highest common factor of 16 and 28

16: 1, 2, 4, 8, 16

28: 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 14, 28

The highest common factor of 16 and 28 is 4

This means the greatest number of groups he could have made is 4 groups

Each of the four groups will have:

16 squares = 16 / 4

= 4 Squares each

28 circles = 28 / 4

= 7 circles each

Each of the four groups will have:

4 Squares each
