Question 1028465: A relief worker needs to divide 2250 bottles of water and 486 cans of food into groups that each contain the same number of items. Also, each group must contain the same type of item (bottled water or canned food). What is the largest number of relief supplies that can be put in each group?

You can put this solution on YOUR website! I need to find the greatest common divisor of
the two numbers
I think 18 is the GCD, and
18 is the largest number of supplies to be put
into each group
----------------
There are 125 groups that each have 18 bottles of water
There are 27 groups that each have 18 cans of food
