Rafaela is a physical education teacher and has 25 girls and 35 boys in her class. She wants to divide the class into teams of the same size, where each team has the same number of girls and the same number of boys. If Rafaela creates the greatest number of teams possible, how many boys will be on each team?

I'm pretty sure that each team will have 7 boys and 5 girls.

Find the GCF of 35 and 25. GCF = 5.
Divide each by GCF. 35/5=7; 25/5=5
Each team will have 7 boys and 5 girls.
