    A) The GCF of 54 and 28 is 2. So, the greatest number of identical necklaces you can make using all of the beads is 2.

    Blue (54) factors: 2 x 3 x 3 x 3 Red (28) factors: 2 x 2 x 7

    B) divide both numbers by 2 to calculate how many beads should be used in each necklace. see the underlined values from part (A)

    Answer: 2 friends will get a necklace that contains 27 blue & 14 red beads
