Emily has two pieces of thread, one 24 feet long and the other 36 feet
long. For a sewing project, she needs to cut them up to produce
many pieces of thread that are all of the same length, with no thread
left over. What is the greatest length, in feet, that she can make them?

Same as the questions u gave...
I'm going to call the length of the bracelet the number of times you have to add to get back to the first bead. This is the same as the number of beads, except in one case:
The shortest bracelet has length 1 and starts with (0,0). If you add one time, you get back to the first 0. But the bracelet has two beads. (Every bracelet has to have at least two beads to start.)
The next shortest bracelet starts with (0,5), and has length 3:
0 5 5
There is a bracelet of length 4 that starts with (2,6) (the first example on the main page):
2 6 8 4
There is a bracelet of length 12 that starts with (1,3) (the second example on the main page):
1 3 4 7 1 8 9 7 6 3 9 2
There is a bracelet of length 20 that starts with (0,4)
0 4 4 8 2 0 2 2 4 6 0 6 6 2 8 0 8 8 6 4
There is a bracelet of length 60 that starts with (0,1)
(I'll let you have the fun of writing all the beads.)
