Tim has 39 pairs of headphones and 13 music players. Tim wants to sell all the headphones and music players in identical packages what is the greatest number of packages time can make

He will have 13 packages containing 3 pairs of headphones and 1 music player each.

Step-by-step explanation:

He has 39 pairs of headphones and 13 music players.

He wants to sell both set of items in identical packages.

To do this he has to divide them in such a way that the same number of both set of objects are in every box.

Let us find the ratio of the pairs of headphones to music players:

39 : 13 = 3 : 1

Therefore, dividing the pairs of headphones into 3 parts and the music players into 1 part, he can have identical packages.

So, he will have 13 packages containing 3 pairs of headphones and 1 music player each.
