Answer:
A) 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Red chips give 2 points
Blue chips give 4 points
Green chips give 5 points
The factors of 16000= 2*2*2*2*2*2*2*5*5*5
= 2^7 *5^3
= 2^3 * 2^4 * 5^3
Green chip is a multiple of 5
This means that we have 3 green chips.
Recall that;
The number of green chips equals the number of blue chips
Blue chips has a multiple of 4. This implies that for blue chips we have 4^3
The value of blue and green chips = 4^3 * 5^3
= 8000
The value of red chips = 16000/8000
= 2= 2^1
the number of Red chips = 2/2 = 1(A)
