To find the largest number of bouquets she can make without having any flowers left over, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the numbers of each type of flower.
The GCD of 36, 27, and 18 is 9.
Therefore, the florist can make 9 bouquets.
In each bouquet, there will be:
- 36 roses / 9 bouquets = 4 roses in each bouquet
- 27 tulips / 9 bouquets = 3 tulips in each bouquet
- 18 carnations / 9 bouquets = 2 carnations in each bouquet.
A florist has 36 roses, 27 tulips, and 18 carnations she must use to create bouquets. each bouquets must have an equal number of each type of flower as the other bouquets. what is the largest number of bouquets she can make without having any flowers left over? how many roses will be in each bouquet? how many tulips will be in each bouquet? how many carnations will be in each bouquet?
_ bouquets
_ roses in each bouquet
_tulips in each bouquet
