Shaquira is baking cookies to put in packages for a fundraiser. Shaquira has made 86 chocolate chip cookies and 42 sugar cookies.
Shaquira wants to create identical packages of cookies to sell, and she must use all of the cookies.
What is the greatest number of identical packages that Shaquira can make?

Respuesta :

Shaquira can make 42 identical packages, which contain 2 chocolate chip cookies and 1 sugar cookies.

86/2=43 chocolate chip cookies 
42/1=42 sugar cookies
 The greatest number of identical packages she can make is 42 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.
