A florist has 49 red roses and 63 white roses. The florist wants to put an equal number of red roses in each centerpiece, along with an equal number of white roses in each, using all the flowers. What is the greatest number of centerpieces the florist can make, and how many of each flower will they have?

Respuesta :

7..
49 can be equally divided by seven, which means there would be 9 red roses in each center piece. And 63 can be equally divided by 7 which means there would by 7 white roses in each center piece.
hope this helps

Number of red roses a florist has = 49

Number of white roses a florist has = 63

To find the number of centerpieces with equal number of white and red roses we will find the greatest common factor of both the numbers,

49 = [tex]7\times 7[/tex]

63 = [tex]7\times 9[/tex]

GCF of 49 and 63 = 7

Therefore, number of centerpieces = 7

Now divide the total number of red roses by GCF to find the number of red flowers in each centerpiece.

Number of red roses in each centerpiece = 7

Similarly, number of white roses in each centerpiece = 9
