Aparty store sells large plates in packs of 12 and small plates in packs of eight. in order to have an equal number of both, what is the least amount of large plaate packs that would have to be purchased?

The least amount of large plate packs that would have to be purchased is 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this we have to find first multiplication of 8 that is equally divided by 12.

A person can buy large packs of plates in multiple of 12 only.

A person can buy {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,...}packs of plates and will purchase

{12,24,36 ,48,60,72,84,96,...}large plates.

A person can buy small packs of plates in multiple of 8 only.

A person can buy {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,11,12...}packs of plates and will purchase..

{8,16,24,32,40,48,56,64,72,80,88,96,...}small plates

Now we have to keep in mind that one has to purchase equal amount of plates..

A person can buy {24,48,72,96} plates and hence least amount of large plate packs that would have to be purchased is 24

i can not answer the question due to the fact that you spelled "carton" as "cartoon", a cartoon is something you watch on tv, a carton is a box that holds things. and also you've been waiting for this question for a while so why don't you get off your lazy a** and try to figure it out for yourself for once!
