. Rachel has 12 baseballs and 18 basketballs. If she wants to divide them into identical groups without any balls left over, what is the greatest number of groups Rachel can make?

first anwser choice.

step-by-step explanation:

the greater/less or equal to symbol (> or < with the line at the bottom) is a closed/filled in circle.

-5c + 2 _< _27

subtract from both sides by 2

-5c _< _ 27

divide both sides by -5

c _< _ 5.4

flip the inequality sign

c _> _5.4

the only possible answer that would match the simplified inequality is the first answer choice

60: 45 =12: 9 =4: 3 so the answer is 4: 3
