Step-by-step explanation:
Given that,
No. of chocolate chip cookies = 86
No. of sugar cookies = 42
We need to find the number of identical packages that I can make.
It means we need to find the HCF of these 2 number.
Prime factorization of 86 and 42 as follows :
86 = 2 x 43
42 = 2 x 3 x 7
HCF = 2
Hence, I can make 2 identical packages.
Answer:
Assuming there can only be 2 cookies per identical package, She can make 42 identical packages which contains 2 chocolate chip cookies and 1 sugar cookie.
86 / 2 = 43 chocolate chips cookies
42 / 1 = 42 sugar cookies
With the sugar cookies not having the capability to match the requirements we will assume for this answer that an "Identical Package" is composed of 2 chocolate chip cookies, and a single sugar cookie.
