(a)The greatest number of goodie bags that can be created=18

(b)There must be 3 tickets and 2 posters in each bag.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a)Total tickets= 54

Total posters=36

To find the greatest number of goodie bags that can be created ,

we find Greatest common factor of 54 and 36

54=2×3×3×3(1)

36=2×2×3×3(2)

⇒ gcf (54,36)=18

⇒ the greatest number of goodie bags that can be created=18

(b)  We know that

Number of tickets=54=18×3

Number of posters=36=18×2

So there must be 3 tickets and 2 posters in each bag.
