How Many S'mores Can You Make with These Ingredients?

Question:

If you have 14 graham crackers, 20 chocolate pieces, and 8 marshmallows, how many total s'mores can you make?

Answer:

7 s'mores can be made with the given ingredients.

With 14 graham crackers, you can make 7 s'mores (since each s'more requires 2 crackers).

With 20 chocolate pieces, you can make 10 s'mores (2 pieces per s'more)

With 8 marshmallows, you can make 8 s'mores (1 marshmallow per s'more)

Therefore, the limiting factor for making s'mores in this case is the amount of graham crackers, resulting in 7 s'mores being the maximum that can be made.
