Pls assist with this question. Thk u
3 cookies is not divisible 5. So, multiply by 5.
3 cookies x 5 = 15 cookies (which is divisible by 5)
Lollipops also have to multiply by 5 → 2 x 5 = 10 lollipops.
10 lollipops is not divisible by 3. So, multiply by 3.
10 lollipops x 3 = 30 lollipops.
Cookies also have to multiply by 3→ 15 cookies x 3 = 45 cookies
So 1 bag x 3 x 5 = 15 bags
15 bags have 45 cookies and 30 lollipops.
Cost of 15 bags
= cost of 45 cookies + cost of 30 lollipops
= (45÷5) x $2 + (30÷3) x $5
= 9 x $2 + 10 x $5
= $18 + $50
= $68
$408 ÷ $68 = 6
Number of bags packed
= 6 x 15
= 90
But 15 cookies ÷ 3 = 5 bags can be filled.
6 lollipops ÷ 2 = 3 bags can be filled.
What you want to do is to make the number of bags the same.
5 bags x 3 = 15 bags
3 bags x 5 = 15 bags
So 15 cookies x 3 = 45 cookies
6 lollipops x 5 = 30 lollipops.
