Answer:

24 gift bags, with 3 wristbands, and 4 movie passes per bag.

Explanation:

The common factors of 72 and 96 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, and 24. So the GCF is 24, then if the GCF is 24, you have to divide by 24 both the 72 and 96 (This for finding the number of items in each gift bag).

72/24= 3 96/24=4
