Shaquira is baking cookies to put in packages for a fundraiser. Shaquira has made 86
chocolate chip cookies and 42 sugar cookies.
Shaquira wants to create identical packages of cookies to sell, and she must use all of the cookies.
Answers
Answer:
We need to find H.C.F. if 42 and 86
2|42,86
|21,43
So, H.C.F.=2
Total no. of cooking = 42+86= 128
No. of packets made =128/2= 64
So,Shaqira has to make 64 packets of 2 cookies each.
Hope this helps you understand:)
Answer:2
Step-by-step explanation:
n order to know how many packages Shaquira can make, we need a number that is a factor of \red{86}86start color #df0030, 86, end color #df0030 and \green{42}42start color #28ae7b, 42, end color #28ae7b, so that the \red{86}86start color #df0030, 86, end color #df0030 chocolate chip cookies and the \green{42}42start color #28ae7b, 42, end color #28ae7b sugar cookies can be divided up evenly.
Hint #22 / 3
To find the greatest number of packages of cookies, we want to find the greatest common factor of \red{86}86start color #df0030, 86, end color #df0030 and \green{42}42start color #28ae7b, 42, end color #28ae7b.
To do so, let's find factors of \red{86}86start color #df0030, 86, end color #df0030 and \green{42}42start color #28ae7b, 42, end color #28ae7b.
\red{86}86start color #df0030, 86, end color #df0030: 1, \blue2, 43, 861,2,43,861, comma, start color #6495ed, 2, end color #6495ed, comma, 43, comma, 86
\green{42}42start color #28ae7b, 42, end color #28ae7b: 1, \blue2, 3, 6, 7, 14, 21, 421,2,3,6,7,14,21,421, comma, start color #6495ed, 2, end color #6495ed, comma, 3, comma, 6, comma, 7, comma, 14, comma, 21, comma, 42
The greatest common factor of \red{86}86start color #df0030, 86, end color #df0030 and \green{42}42start color #28ae7b, 42, end color #28ae7b is \blue22start color #6495ed, 2, end color #6495ed. In math notation this looks like:
\qquad\text{gcf}(\red{86}, \green{42}) = \blue2gcf(86,42)=2start text, g, c, f, end text, left parenthesis, start color #df0030, 86, end color #df0030, comma, start color #28ae7b, 42, end color #28ae7b, right parenthesis, equals, start color #6495ed, 2, end color #6495ed.
Hint #33 / 3
The greatest number of identical packages that Shaquira can make is \blue22start color #6495ed, 2, end color #6495ed.vvvvvv
