Answer: 5 packs of cups, 6 packs of napkins

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this question, you need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of 12 and 10. The LCM is the lowest number that is a multiple of both of those numbers (for example, the least common multiple of 2 and 4 is four, because four is a multiple of both two and four. another example would be the lcm of 2 and 3 is 6, because both numbers can multiply to 6).

So to find the LCM, we can make a table of multiples of both of these numbers and see which one is the lowest.

12: 12, 24, 36, 48, 60

10: 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60

See how the lowest common multiple is 60 in this case? There are other common multiples, like 120 for example, but this is the lowest one so we'll work with it instead. Let's work out how many packs it will take to get to 60 items in total.

12 x 5 = 60, so Monique should buy 5 packs of cups.

10 x 6 = 60, so Monique should buy 6 packs of napkins.

A deck of playing cards has four suits, with thirteen cards in each suit consisting of the numbers 2 through 10, a jack, a queen

Since order does not matter, you use a combination and not a permutation, so the first one is true, which means the second one is not true.
The probability of choosing two diamonds and three hearts can be represented by (13C2 * 13C3)/52C5, which is 0.0086, not 0.089, so the third one is not true.
The probability of choosing five spades and the probability of choosing five clubs are represented by the same thing, 13C5/52C5, which is roughly 0.0005, so the fourth one is not true but the fifth one is. So the answer is the first and fifth one.

DedPeter [7]
A ratio is not multiplication, so I'm just going to throw that out there first in case any other answers trip you up.

9:2 is the correct answer because there are 9 sandwiches for 2 people.
