Martin is organising a summer fair.
He needs bread buns and burgers for the barbecue.
Bread buns are sold in packs. Each pack contains 40 bread buns.
Burgers are sold in packs. Each pack contains 24 burgers.
Martin buys exactly the same number of bread buns as burgers.
What is the least number of each pack that Martin buys?

Answer :

The least number of each pack that Martin can buy is 5 packs of burger and 3 packs of bread buns.

Since the packs of bread buns contain 40 bread buns and each pack of burgers contains 24 burgers, then we'll calculate the multiples of each number. This will be:

Multiples of 24 = 24, 48, 72, 96, 120

Multiples of 40 = 40, 80, 120, ...

Therefore, the least common multiple is 120.

The least number of packs of burger to buy is 5 and least number of packs of bread buns to buy is 3.
