Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
7 red candies
9 blue candies
12 pink candies
Condition:
Number of bags that has equal number of candies.
We can do 7 bags with 1 colored candy each. There will be an excess of 2 blue candies and 5 pink candies.
We can do 4 bags with 1 red candy, 2 blue candies, 3 pink candies. There will be an excess of 3 red candies and 1 blue candy.
We can do 3 bags with 2 red candies, 3 blue candies, 4 pink candies. There will be an excess of 1 red candy.
First list all the factors of 12;
1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 12
now let's see which ones are multiples of 3;
3, 6, 12
so all we have left are numbers 1, 2 and 4.

Answer: It will take 7 stages for all 19,530 families to be called.
In the first stage, only 5 families are called.
In the second stage, we would have 5 x 5 = 25 families being called.
In the third stage, we would have 5 x 5 x 5 = 125 families being called.
We can use exponents to finish the list and see when our goal is reached.
4th stage: 5^4 = 625
5th stage: 5^5 = 3125
6th stage: 5^6 = 15625
7th stage: 5^7 = 78,125
