Mack is repackaging 6/8- pound bags of birdseed into 1-pound bags of birdseed.

We need to find the least number of 6/8 -pound bags of birdseed

Question says : he needs in order to fill 1-pound bags without any leftovers

so we find a least number such that \frac{6}{8} * x is an integer

We use the factors of 6  and 8

We know 6 = 2*3  and 8 = 4* 2

\frac{2*3}{2*4} = \frac{3}{4}

Here 4 is in the denominator , to get integer value we multiply by 4

\frac{3}{4} * 4 = 3

So answer is 4  \frac{6}{8} - pound bags

4 is the least number of 6/8 -pound bags of birdseed he needs in order to fill 1-pound bags without any leftovers
