Solise is planting 24 bushes and 16 trees in equal rows. She wants all the rows to be exactly the same with no plants left over. What is the greatest number of rows Solise can plant?

Since Solise want to plant both trees and bushes in the same number of rows, you need to find the common factor.

Since the question is asking what the greatest number of rows she can plant, you have to find the greatest common factor.

The greatest common factor of 24 and 16 is 8.

You can plant 24 bushes in 8 rows (meaning you can divide it by 8), and 16 trees in 8 rows (meaning you can divide it by 8). Since the greatest number you can divide them both by is 8, the GCF of 24 and 16 is 8.

So the greatest number of rows Solise can plant is 8 rows.

the answer would be 1 1/72

step-by-step explanation:

you can rewrite the equation by separating the parts and then solving individually:

10-9=1

1/8 - 1/9=

find l c d and then combine:

1 1/72
