Question

Ayesha has 96 orange candies and Maya has 36 brown candies. They want to

arrange the candies in such a way that each row contains an equal number of candies

and also each row should have only orange candies or brown candies. What is the

greatest number of candies that can be arranged in each row?

Answer 1

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

HCF of 96 and 36

PF of 96 = 2×2×2×2×2×3

PF of 36 = 2×2×3×3

Common Factors = 2×2×3

Therefore, HCF = 12

So, Ultimately the greatest number of candies will be 12.

Let E be the event of taking out a candy from bag.

Solution(i):

The bag contains only lemon flavored candies, and nothing else.

There are no orange flavored candies in the bag. Hence there is no possibility of taking out an orange candy.

Therefore, the probability of taking out an orange flavored candy =0

Solution(ii):

The bag contains only lemon flavored candies, and nothing else.

Therefore (No.of favorable outcomes)=(Total no.of possible outcomes)

We know that, Probability of an event E, P(E) =

(Total no.of possible outcomes)

(No.of favorable outcomes)

P(E)=1

Therefore, the probability of taking out a lemon flavored candy =1
