Gerry is making flower arrangements. She has 24 lilies and 40 orchids. Each
arrangement must have the same number of lilies and the same number of orchids.
She wants to use all of the flowers. What's the greatest number of arrangements she
can make ?

Respuesta :

Answer:

8 arrangements

Step-by-step explanation:

The highest common factor of 24 and 40 is 8

So

40 / 8 = 5

24 / 8 = 3

5 orchids and 3 lilies per arrangement makes 8 arrangements
