Tommie had a bag of apples and could evenly divide them into groups of 4 or groups of 6. Which number represents the possible number of apples in the bag? Enter your text A. 10 apples B. 20 apples C. 36 apples D. 30 apples

Respuesta :

Answer: 36

Explanation:

We need to find wich one of the options can be divided by 4 and 6 in an exact manner (no decimal point in the result).

For option A. 10

10/4 = 2.5

10/6=1.66

So 10 is not exactly divided by 4 or 6. This is not a possible number of apples.

For option B. 20

20/4=5

20/6=3.33

thus, 20 is divisible by 4 but not by 6, so this is also not the answer.

For option C. 36

36/4=9

36/6=6

36 is exactly divisible by both 4 and 6. This is a possible number of apples in the bag.

Answer: 36
