Question

Q4. Rabia is making the flower arrangements. She has 14 roses and 21 daisies. If she wants to make all the arrangements identical and have no flower left over, what is the greatest number of flower arrangement that she can make?​

Answer 1

Answer:

H.C.F of 14 and 21 = 7

7 flower arrangements can be made

Answer 2

She will be able to make 8 bouquets:

Each bouquet will have 2 red flowers and 3 yellow flowers.

Explanation:

Sara obviously wants to use all the flowers so she does not any left over. She needs to find a number which divides into 16 and 24,

This is just an indirect way of using the HCF of 16 and 24, which is 8.

16 = 2 × 8

24 = 3 × 8

She will be able to make 8 bouquets:

Each bouquet will have 2 red flowers and 3 yellow flowers.
