Since Solise want to plant both trees and bushes in the same number of rows, you need to find the common factor.
Since the question is asking what the greatest number of rows she can plant, you have to find the greatest common factor.
The greatest common factor of 24 and 16 is 8.
You can plant 24 bushes in 8 rows (meaning you can divide it by 8), and 16 trees in 8 rows (meaning you can divide it by 8). Since the greatest number you can divide them both by is 8, the GCF of 24 and 16 is 8.
So the greatest number of rows Solise can plant is 8 rows.

Answer:
20x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: 16 men
32 women
38 children
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of men in the group.
Let y represent the number if women in the group.
Let z represent the number of children in the group.
A group of 86 people consist of men women and children. This means that
x + y + z = 86 - - - - - - - - - - - - 1
There are twice as many women than there are men. It means that
x = y/2
There are 6 more children than there are women. This means that
z = y + 6
Substituting x = y/2 and z = y + 6 into equation 1, it becomes
y/2 + y + y + 6 = 86
multiplying through by 2, it becomes
y + 2y + 2y + 12 = 172
5y = 172 - 12 = 160
y = 160/5 = 32
x = y/2 = 32/2
x = 16
z = y + 6 = 32 + 6
z = 38
Answer: 24/12 12/6 2/1
Step-by-step explanation:
Just divide by the nearest number (123456789)
