The pet shop is putting together goody bags to send to different shelters. They have 36 chew toys, 24 dog bones and 18 chase toys
for cats. What is the maximum number of goody bags will they be
able to tacke to send to shelters?

Answer

They will be able to make 18 goody bags with 24 extra toys.

Step-by-step explanation:

The least number is 18. So they will only be able to put 18 of each other toy to fill the  bags with all 3 toys. So the extra toys with be the remainders.

(n^3 - n)

= n(n-1)(n+1)

since it is divisible by 3 and 2 ,because it is a multiple 3 consecutive number

if, n-1 is odd then n+1 is also odd, then it is a multiple of 9

but if, n-1 is even then n+1 is also even, then it is a multiple of 4

so, largest multiple = max(9*2, 4*3) = max(18, 12) = 18
