Problema Solution
Peter's Party Zone sells cups in packages of 6666 and plates in packages of 8888.
Shaniya is hosting a birthday party for her little sister and wants to have the same number of each item.
What is the least number of packages of plates Shaniya needs to buy?
Answer provided by our tutors
Since LCM(6666, 8888) = 26664 we find the answer:
Shaniya needs to buy 26664 : 6666 = 4 packages of cups and 26664 : 8888 = 3 packages of plates.
