Farmer Hanson is putting together fruit baskets. He has 240 apples and 150 pears. What is the largest number of baskets he can put together so that he can have the same number of apples and same number of pears in each basket considering no fruit is left out?

30 baskets.

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to find the Greatest Common Factor (GCF).

240 (apples) = 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 5

150 (pears) = 2 x 3 x 5 x 5

GCF (240, 150) = 2 x 3 x 5

                         = 30

You can make 30 baskets containing 240/30 = 8 apples and 150/30 = 5 pears.

b. 18

step-by-step explanation:

so the equation for this is:

ab^2=ac⋅ad

ab being the top length of 6 and ac being the length of 2 and ad being the length of x. let's plug into the equation:

6^2 = 2x

now lets just solve for x:

36 = 2x

18 = x
