Pencils come in packages of 10. Erasers come in packages of 12. Phillip want to purchase the smallest number of pencils and erasers so that he will have exactly 1 erasers per pencil. How many packages of pencils and erasers should Phillip buy

6 packages of pencils

5 packages of erasers

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find the LCM of 10 and 12, which is 60

because 60 is divisible by both 10 and 12

60/10 = 6 packages of pencils

60/12 = 5 packages of erasers

y < -3

step-by-step explanation:

-3y - 2 > 7

-3y -2 + 2 > 7+2

-3y > 9

-3y/-3 < 9/-3   (change the inequality sign when multiplying or dividing by a negative number)

y < -3
