Heena has to make gift hampers out of 40 chocolates, 24 chips packets and 16 juice packets. The gift hampers have to be identical and contain all three items. What is the maximum number of such gift hampers she can make without leaving any item?

i believe the correct answer is 16 gift hampers. since there are only 16 juice packets, we know there can’t be anything higher than 16. if each gift hamper has one chocolate, one chip packet, and one juice packet, there is only going to be enough juice packets for 16 gift hampers.
