Rosy has 16 pencils and 24 erasers. She is putting together packets that will have an equal number of pencils and erasers in each packet. If Rosy uses all of the pencils and erasers, what the the maximum number of packets she can make?

If she puts 2 pencils and 3 erasers in each packet,

Rosy can make a total of 8 packets.

the max packets she can make is 8

Step-by-step explanation:

16/8=2 and 24/8=3 s and if she make more packets there will be a decimal amount of erasers.

solution:

→c= a b , that is product of a and b is possible only when when a is m × n matrix and b is n × p matrix.

that is, number of columns of a= number of rows of b.

so, size of matrix , c= a b is , if a = (m × n)matrix

b= (n × p)matrix

then a b = [ (m × n)matrix] ×[   (n × p)matrix ]

→→c= a b= [m × p ] matrix

→→size of product a b will be equal to = number of rows of a × number of columns of b
