Answer: 60th visitor would be the first one to get both the calendar and toy.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Every sixth visitor to an animal shelter gets a free animal calendar.

Every twentieth visitor gets a free animal toy.

We need to find the visitor that will be the fist one to get both the calendar and toy.

So, we will do L.C.M. of 6 and 20 to get this.

L.C.M. of 6 and 20 = 60

So, 60th visitor would be the first one to get both the calendar and toy.
