Question

Fireside Flowers has 75 daisies, 60 lililes, and 30 roses. What is the greatest common factor Fireside Flowers can use to divide the flowers into equal groups​

Answer 1

15

Explanation:

Start by factoring each number into primes.

30 = 2 · 3 · 5

60 = 2 · 2 · 3 · 5

75 = 3 · 5 · 5

Look for prime numbers used in all three factorizations and include these common primes in the greatest common factor (GCF).

Since 3 is used at least one time in all three factorizations, the GCF will contain one 3.

Since 5 is used at least one time in all three factorizations, the GCF will contain one 5.

Therefore, the GCF Fireside Flowers can use to divide the flowers into equal groups is 3 · 5 = 15.
