Quote - I'm still trying to figure out why hotdogs come in packages of 10, but the buns in packages of 8...;)

So you'll have to buy 4 packs of hotdogs and 5 packs of buns to even out.

10(hotdogs) = 8(buns)
Factor out the 2, then 5(hotdogs) = 4(buns)
Thus for the first non-zero whole number, 5(4) = 4(5)

There's probably some other algebra that I forgot that would be better for coming to the conclusion.
