Kate is organizing 585 video games into shipping boxes. Not all of the customers are ordering the same amount of videos, so not all of the boxes are going to be the same size. What are Kates options for the number of video games that can be put in each shipping box?

1. So, Kate can put 45 video games each in 13 shipping boxes or 13 video games each in 45 shipping boxes.

2. Kate can put 117 video games each in 5 shipping boxes or 5 video games each in 117 shipping boxes.

3. Kate can put 9 video games each in 65 shipping boxes or 65 video games each in 9 shipping boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

The prime factorization of 585 = 3² × 5 × 13.

So, the number of video games Kate can put in each shipping box are the different combinations of the prime factors. So, they are

1. 3² × 5 × 13 = 45 × 13 or 13 × 45.

So, Kate can put 45 video games each in 13 shipping boxes or 13 video games each in 45 shipping boxes.

2.  3² × 5 × 13 =  3² × 13 × 5 = 117 × 5 or 5 × 117

So, Kate can put 117 video games each in 5 shipping boxes or 5 video games each in 117 shipping boxes.

3.  3² × 5 × 13 =  3² × 13 × 5 = 9 × 65 or 65 × 9

So, Kate can put 9 video games each in 65 shipping boxes or 65 video games each in 9 shipping boxes.

the answer to this question is yes
