There sre 16 rocks that are green and 24 rocks that are blue.
Sharon is dividing her green and blue rock collection into bags. Each bag will contain the same number of each color of rock. How many rocks of each colr will be in each bag?
Answered by Steve
16 = 2^4
24 = 2^3 3^1
GCF(16,24) = 2^3 = 8
so, there will be 8 bags, each with 2 green and 3 blue rocks
