Hot dogs come in packages of 10. Hot dog buns come in packages of 8. How many hot dogs and hot dog buns will Mr. Deeks buy so that he has one bun for every hot dog?

10 = 2 ⋅ 5     LCM = 2 ⋅ 2 ⋅ 2 ⋅ 5

8 = 2 ⋅ 2 ⋅ 2              =40

40 ÷ 10 = 4 packages of hot dogs

40 ÷ 8 = 5 packages of hot dog buns

You must buy 4 packages of hot dogs

and 5 packages of hot dog buns.

He will buy 4 packages of hot dogs and 5 packages of hot dog buns.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we must find the common multiple of 10 and 8, which is 40.

Next, since 10 × 4 = 40, and 8 × 5 = 40,

He will buy 4 packages of hot dogs and 5 packages of hot dog buns.
