Luis purchased 24 purple plants and 8 pink plants. He wants to plant them in equal groups in his garden. What is the largest number of groups he can make? How many of each plant will be in a group?

8 groups would be the largest amount. There would be 3 purple plants and 1 pink plant in each group.

It will be 3 becouse 24 divided by 8 equals 16 and 16 divided by 8 equals 8 so it’s three
