How many groups will they be divided into?

Question

The English and Social Studies classes are participating in an Egyptian Exhibit. One class has

25 students and the other class has 35 students. The teachers want to divide the students into

the largest possible equal groups, with no students left over. If all the groups have the same

number of students, how many groups would there be?

Answer 1

(25+35)/2= 60/2= 30

two groups of 30 students each

is the largest group

short of one group of all 60

or if they want the largest number of groups

then 30 groups of 2 students each

2 of 30

or

30 of 2

with no one left over
