Mrs. Cantonwine teaches 2 math classes. There are 28 students in 6A and 21 students in 6B. She divided both classes into groups of equal size. How many students are in a group?

Hi there!

In order to figure out how many students are in each group, we'll need to find the greatest common factor of the two class sizes. The greatest common factor is 7. This means that 7 students are in each group.

Hope this helps!! :)
If there's anything else that I can help you with, please let me know!
