The largest number of giant cookies Nadi can make is 32. She can use 80 pieces of each topping on each cookie, for a total of 80 chocolate chips, 80 pecan nuts, and 80 Smarties.
AAAaannndd the bot gets it wrong yet again!
GCF(80,112,128) = 16
so she can make 16 batches, each with
5 chips, 7 nuts, 8 smarties
GCF(80,112,128) = 16
so she can make 16 batches, each with
5 chips, 7 nuts, 8 smarties
