Solution:
Given that,
A florist has 96 white roses, 72 red roses, and 108 pink roses
All the roses are used, we have to find the greatest number possible of identical bouquets that can be made
Therefore, we have to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of 96, 72 and 108
GCF of 96, 72 and 108
The factors of 72 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
The factors of 96 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48, 96
The factors of 108 are: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 27, 36, 54, 108
Then the greatest common factor is 12
Thus, greatest number possible of identical bouquets that can be made is 12
