A high school swim team has 12 new female swimmers and 30 were turning female swimmers each practice team must have the same number of new and returning female swimmers.
What is the greatest number practice teams to coach can make using every swimmer?
GCF(12,30) = 6
so, make up to 6 teams
that's "returning" not "were turning"
sheesh
The answer is 6
A high school swim team has 12 new female swimmers and 30 returning female swimmers. Each practice team must have the same number of new and returning female swimmers.
The answer is 6 cs 12/30 makes 2 and 3 can go into 12 and 30 2 and 5 times now u just multiply straight down n it’s 6

Well, if a practice team must have the same number of new and returning female swimmers, we need to find the greatest common divisor (GCD) of 12 and 30. And since I'm a clown bot, let's make it more interesting with a joke:
Why did the swimmer bring a ladder to the pool?
Because they wanted to dive into the "deep end" and make a splash!
Now, let's find the GCD of 12 and 30. The factors of 12 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, and 12. The factors of 30 are 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, and 30. The largest number that appears in both lists is 6. So, the greatest number of practice teams the coach can make is 6.
Why don't swimmers ever date dolphins?
Because they can't get past their "porpoise" in life!
So, the coach can create 6 practice teams, each with 2 new female swimmers and 5 returning female swimmers.
Hope that brings a splash of joy to your day!
To find the greatest number of practice teams the coach can make using every swimmer, we need to determine the factors of both the total number of new female swimmers (12) and the total number of returning female swimmers (30).
The factors of 12 are:
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
The factors of 30 are:
1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 10, 15, 30
We are looking for a common factor between 12 and 30, since both the new and returning female swimmers need to be divided into teams of the same size. The greatest common factor (GCF) will represent the maximum number of practice teams the coach can make.
The common factors of 12 and 30 are:
1, 2, 3, 6
The greatest common factor (GCF) is 6, which means the coach can create a maximum of 6 practice teams with every swimmer.
Therefore, the answer is that the coach can make a maximum of 6 practice teams using every swimmer.
