First, find the LCM of 24 and 32
32= 2x2x2x2x2
24=2x2x2x3
Lcm=(32,24)= 2x2x2x2x2x3= 96
24pencils= 1pack
i) 96 pencils = 4x 24 pencils= 4 packs
ii) 32 crayons= 1 pack
96 crayons = 3 x 32 crayons = 3 packs
32= 2x2x2x2x2
24=2x2x2x3
Lcm=(32,24)= 2x2x2x2x2x3= 96
24pencils= 1pack
i) 96 pencils = 4x 24 pencils= 4 packs
ii) 32 crayons= 1 pack
96 crayons = 3 x 32 crayons = 3 packs
