Step-by-step explanation:

A scout troop is going hiking. They have 75 energy bars, 35 energy drinks, and 45 bottles of water. If each scout gets the same amount of supplies with NONE left over, what is the largest possible # of scouts in the troop

Energy bars = 75

Energy drinks = 35

Bottles of water = 45

75 = 1, 3, 5, 15, 25 and 75

45 = 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, and 45

35 = 1, 5, 7 and 35

The highest common factor of 75, 35 and 45 is 5

Therefore, each scout get

Energy bars = 75/5

= 15 each per scout

Energy drink = 35/5

= 5 each per scout

Bottle water = 45/5

= 9 each per scout
