Using the least common factor, it is found that:

  • a) 60 packages should be bought.
  • b) There will be 5 filled goody bags.

<h3>Least Common Factor:</h3>
  • The sizes of the packages are: 10, 6, 15 and 12.
  • To fill each bag and have no left-overs, the number of packages is the <u>least common factor</u> of these amounts.
  • The least common factor is found factoring the numbers into prime factors.

Item a:

10 - 6 - 15 - 12|2

5 - 3 - 15 - 6|2

5 - 3 - 15 - 3|3

5 - 1 - 5 - 1|5

1 - 1 - 1 - 1

Hence, lcf(10,6,15,2) = 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 = 60.

60 packages should be bought.

Item b:

Goody bags are in packages of 12, hence:

60/12 = 5.

There will be 5 filled goody bags.
