A carnival game gives variety bags as prizes. The game operator uses 100 balloons and 68 stickers to put into a certain number of bags. How many balloons and how many stickers can go in each bag if they make the greatest number of bags possible so that each bag has the same number of balloons and the same number of stickers?
4 answers
Each bag can have 4 balloons and 2 stickers. This would create 25 bags.
In these type of questions, it is usually assumed that no balloons and no stickers would be left over.
Unfortunately if 25 bags would be the answer, with 2 stickers in each bag, there would be 38 stickers left over.

The HCF of 100 and 68 is 4, so they could make 4 bags, each with
25 balloons and 17 stickers.
