Find the greatest number of students to whom 36 copies and 54 pencils can be equally divided?​

 18 people escher person would get 2 copies and 3 pencils

Step-by-step explanation:

The greatest comon factor of 36 and 54 is 18 then you would do 36/18 and get 2 then 54/18 and get 3

(n^3 - n)

= n(n-1)(n+1)

since it is divisible by 3 and 2 ,because it is a multiple 3 consecutive number

if, n-1 is odd then n+1 is also odd, then it is a multiple of 9

but if, n-1 is even then n+1 is also even, then it is a multiple of 4

so, largest multiple = max(9*2, 4*3) = max(18, 12) = 18
