Question

Find the greatest number of students to whom 45 soccer balls and 60 tennis balls can be equally divided.

Answer 1

Answer:

• 15 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Find GCF of 45 and 60:

• 45 = 3*3*5
• 60 = 2*2*3*5

GCF(45,60) = 3*5 = 15

Answer 2

• Soccer balls=45
• Tennis balls=60

Find Greatest common multiple or GCF

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 45=3\times 3\times 5$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 60=2\times 2\times 3\times 5$

Now

$\\ \sf\longmapsto GCF=3\times 5=15$
