Giselle buys two types of flowers 48 pink roses and 56 white lilies she combines the two flowers to make identical bouquets with none left over. Find the greatest number of bouquets Giselle can make

To solve this problem, let us first lay out all the factors of each number.

48 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 48

56 : 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28, 56

The greatest number of bouquets that can be made would be equal to the greatest common factor of the two numbers. In this case it would be 8.

Answer:

8 bouquets
