1) Emily wants to create snack bags for a trip she is going on. She has 6 granola bars and 10 pieces of dried fruit. If the snack bags should be identical without any food left over, what is the greatest number of snack bags Emily can make? Write answer in sentence form.

Answer: 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The number of granola bars = 6

The number of pieces of dried fruit = 10

If the snack bags should be identical without any food left over, then the greatest number of snack bags Emily can make is the greatest common factor (GCF) of 6 and 10.

Since, factors of 6 = 1, 2, 3, 6

Factors of 10 = 1, 2, 5, 10

Hence, the greatest common factor of 6 and 10 = 2

Thus, the greatest number of snack bags Emily can make = 2.
