Mrs. Smith is making christmas baskets and wants to evenly divide the 36 ornaments and 24 candy canes so that each basket has the greatest number of ornaments and candy canes without any left over. When you make the greatest # of baskets, how many ornaments will be in each basket?
A.2
B.3
C.6
D.12

C.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is c because 6 can go into both of those numbers when multiplying

B. 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We are looking for the greatest number of baskets. The greatest number of baskets is the greatest number that divides evenly into both 36 and 24.

We need to find the greatest common factor of 36 and 24 to find the greatest number of baskets.

36 = 2^2 * 3^2

24 = 2^3 * 3

GCF = 2^2 * 3 = 4 * 3 = 12

The number of baskets is 12.

Now we need to find the number of ornaments that will go in each basket.

36 ornaments / 12 baskets = 3 ornaments/basket

B. 3

.there can be infinite values of m and n that can satisfy the above equation. for each value of m of m or n. there maybe infinite sets of solution for the above

step-by-step explanation:

17

step-by-step explanation:

51/3=17

thus 17 is your answer.
