The greatest common factor is 18

Then you divide 18 by 96 then 80

80/16=5

96/16=6

So therefore there are 5 boxes of raisins and 6 pencils in each bag

Answer:

GCF is 16, and 6 pencil boxes, and 6 boxes of raisins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, we know the factors of 96 and 80 as:

96 is: 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 3.

85 is: 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 5.

So, the factors in common are:

85 and 96: 2 x 2 x 2 x 2

therefore, HCF is:

2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 16

For pencil boxes,

[tex]\frac{96}{16} = 6[/tex]

For raisins boxes,

[tex]\frac{80}{16} = 5[/tex]
