CASE STUDY QUESTION:

Sarah has 36 candies, and she wants to distribute them equally among her friends. However, she wants
to ensure that the number of candies given to each friend is the largest possible. To do this, she decides
to pack the candies into gift bags with an equal number of candies in each bag.

1.How many candies should Sarah put in each gift bag to maximize the number of gift bags she can
make?

2.Express the total number of candies (36) as a product of two numbers, one of which represents the
number of gift bags Sarah can make and the other represents the number of candies in each bag.

3.Factorize the expression obtained in question 2 to find all possible combinations of gift bags and
candies in each bag.
