Question

Shannon wants to make snack bags that contain an equal amount of three different types of nuts. If she has 26
almonds, 78 pecans, and 52 peanuts, what will be the most number of bags she can have?
A. 26
B. 6
C. 39
D. 13
​

Answer 1

Answer:

A. 26

Step-by-step explanation:

1 bag = 1 almond, 1 pecan, 1 peanut

max number of bags = 26 (almonds cannot be more than 26 and the number of each nut should be the same)

any other combination of same number of nuts only reduces the number of bags
