Abe is going to plant 54 oak trees and 27 pine trees.

Abe would like to plant the trees in rows that all have the same number of trees and are made up of only one type of tree.
What is the greatest number of trees Abe can have in each row?

Answer:

9 rows

(6 rows of Oak and 6 Rows of Pine)

Explanation:

If you add the two together, and find a common denominator (not the least).

54+27= 81

a common denominator is 9.

In order for the same tree in each row, and each row to have the same amount.
