Answer:


Explanation:

To find the least number of party favors, we have to consider the number of guests.


In this case, there are two possibilities—6 or 8.


For 6: 6, 12, 18, 24 (Add 6 to each number)

For 8: 8, 16, 24 (Add 8 to each number)


Now in both series, the least number (that is in common) is 24. Hence, Madison should make at least 24 party favors.
