Gianna buys two types of flowers, 48 roses and 28 lilies. She combines the flowers to make identical bouquets with no flowers left over. What is the greatest number of bouquets she can make and how many of each flower will there be?

Respuesta :

4 because that is the greatest common factor between 48 and 28.

Answer:

the most number of bouquets Gianna can make is 4, with 12 roses and 7 lilies in each bouquet.

Step-by-step explanation:

to begin we figure out what is the biggest number that both 48 and 28 can be divided by. this would be 4.

Now, we have to find out how many bouquets she can make by adding the roses and lilies and dividing by that common factor (4)

The Equation -> Number of bouquets = (48 + 28) / 4 = 76 / 4 = 19.

Since Gianna wants identical bouquets, she can make 4 bouquets with 12 roses and 7 lilies in each.
