Question

Juliana is planning a vegetable garden. She has 27 tomato plants, 45 bean plants, and

54 carrot plants. She wants each row of her garden to have the same number of each
type of plant. What is the greatest number of rows that Juliana can have if she wants to
use all of her plants? How many of each type will she have in each row? pls help me

Answer 1

9 rows, each having 3 tomato plants, 5 bean plants, and 6 carrot plants.

Explanation:

This requires the GCF, or the greatest common factor. This means that you need the largest whole number that divides evenly into each of the numbers (27, 45, and 54).

27, 45, and 54 can all be divided by 9 to get a whole number.

27/9=3

45/9=5

54/9=6

This means that in each row, there will be 3 tomato plants, 5 bean plants, and 6 carrot plants.
