  We must assume that he must put a whole number of objects in each wreath so we must find the greatest common factor
  
  60=2 time 2 times 3 times 5
  36=2 times 2 times 3 times 3
  48=2 times 2 times 2 times 2 times 3
  
  the factors are 2 times 2 times 3 or 12
  there can be 12 wreath max
  we total them up and divide by 12
  60+36+48=144
  144/12=12
  12 items per wreath
