5 cartons  of eggs

3 packages  of steaks

Total cost=$55

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to find the least common multiple of  

6 (number of eggs in a carton) and 10 (number of ham steaks in each package)

LCM = 30

6 12 18 24 30

10 20 30 40 50

Since each carton of eggs (x) has 6 eggs, that expression must be equal to 30(eggs) to find the number of cartons.

6 (x ) = 30

Solving for x

x = 30/6

x = 5 cartons

Same process for the steak, where y= number of packages .  

10 y = 30

y = 30/10

y=3 packages

Since each carton costs $2 and each package of steaks cost $15:

Total Cost =x 2+y 15  

Replacing with the values of x and y calculated

Total cost = (5)2 + (3)15 = 10+45 =$55

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

chad should not have included the values (1, 2) and (3, 6) because that would mean he only had half a healing card.
