Respuesta :

Answer: There are 2 melons, 3 pears and 6 apples in each bowl.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of melons = 8

Number of pears = 12

Number of apples = 24

We need to find the number of pieces that Hana can put in each bowl.

For greatest number of pieces = H.C.F. of  8, 12, 24 =4

So, Number of pieces of melons = [tex]\dfrac{8}{4}=2[/tex]

So, Number of pieces of pears = [tex]\dfrac{12}{4}=3[/tex]

So, Number of pieces of apples = [tex]\dfrac{24}{4}=6[/tex]

Hence, there are 2 melons, 3 pears and 6 apples in each bowl.
