Answer:
12
Step-by-step explanation:
No of tulips = 60
No of daffodils = 72
We need to find the greatest number of bouquets the florist can make if the florist will make bouquets with the same number of tulips and the same number of daffodils in each using all the flowers.
It would mean that we need to find the HCF of 60 and 72
Prime factorisation of 60 = 2×2×3×5
Prime factorization of 72 = 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3
Highest common factor or HCF = 2×2×3 = 12
So, the florist can make 12 bouquets as maximum number.
