Answer:
8 students,
15 cans of juice and 11 packs of cheese cracker
Step-by-step explanation:
Mariam’s uncle donate 120 cans of juice and 90 - 2 = 88 packs of cheese cracker (eats two packs) for the school picnic.
Factor these numbers:
[tex]120=2\cdot 60=2\cdot 2\cdot 30=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot15=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 3\cdot 5\\ \\88=2\cdot 44=2\cdot 2\cdot 22=2\cdot 2\cdot 2\cdot 11[/tex]
The greatest common factor is
[tex]2\cdot 2\cdot 2=8,[/tex]
so the greatest number of students who can share the food equally is 8 and each student will get [tex]3\cdot 5=15[/tex] cans of juice and 11 packs of cheese cracker.
