A trader wants to put 24 green and 18 red apples into a container such that each container has the same number of green and red apples. What is the greatest number of containers he should buy? How many green apples will be in a container? How many red apples will be in a container? All together will be in a container? Find the HCF of 24 and 18.

Answer

  1. The greatest number of containers he should buy is determined by the highest common factor (HCF) of 24 and 18, which is 6.

  2. Each container will have 24 / 6 = 4 green apples.

  3. Each container will have 18 / 6 = 3 red apples.

  4. All together, each container will have 4 + 3 = 7 apples.
