Answer:

  • 12 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of the bags = between 8 and 15  and

  • 1/2 of bags contain money
  • 1/6 of bags contain candy
  • 1/3 of bags contain a toy

As per above the number is divisible by 2, 3 and 6. LCM of the three numbers is 6.

The number between 8 and 15 and divisible by 6:

  • This number is 6*2 = 12

So the number of bags is 12
