Algebra.Com's Answer #849104 by CPhill(1959)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! To figure this out, we need to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 30 and 36. Here's how:\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "**Factors of 30:** 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30 \n" ); document.write( "**Factors of 36:** 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The greatest common factor is 6.\r \n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "* **Team size:** 6 members \n" ); document.write( "* **Number of female teams:** 30 females / 6 members per team = 5 teams \n" ); document.write( "* **Number of male teams:** 36 males / 6 members per team = 6 teams \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
