Answer: The calculations are done below.

Step-by-step explanation: The calculations are as follows

(1) Number of days after which both the teams will have the game on the same day again = LCM (3,5) = 15 days.

(2) We have, LCM (8,6) = 24.

So, number of packages of hamburger buns = 24/8 = 3,

and number of packages of hamburger patties = 64/6 = 4.

(3) We have, LCM(9,12) = 36.

So, least number of days Darion take = 36/9 = 4 days, and

least number of days that Denzel take = 36/12 = 3 days.

(4) We have LCM (2,3) = 6.

So, the number of times they both play the songs in 30 days = 30/6 = 5 times.

(5) The number of minutes in which both the trains will leave the station together = LCM (7,6) = 42 minutes.
