PLZZZZZZZZZ HELPPPPPPP MEEEEE

Alice has 42 red beads and 24 white beads. What is the greatest number of bracelets Alice can make if each bracelet has the same number of white beads and every bead is used????????????

Answer 1

I think you are asking to calculate the gcf(Greatest Common Factor).

So for 42 and 24, their gcf is 6

And 42/6 = 7, 24/6 = 4

So you can make 6 bracelets, each bracelet requires 7 red beads and 4 white beads
