Answer 1

Explanation:

Given that,

Susie has 24 bags of pretzels and 16 bags of chips.

She wants to make snack packs to sell at the carnival, and she wants each snack bag to have the same number of pretzel bags and chip bags.

To find the same no of pretzel bags and chip bags, we can take LCM of 24 and 16.

LCM of 24 and 16 = 48

It means she will need 48 pretzel bags and chip bags
