    The least number of package of cap required is 15, while that of shirt is 9

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Total number of members = 45

    The cap comes in package of 3

    The shirt comes in package of 5

    The least number of the package of caps they need to order is = ?

    Since they're 45 in numbers, we can divide 45 by 3 to know the total number of package required to go round.

    Number of package of caps = 45 / 3

    Number of package of caps = 15

    We can also go ahead and find the number of package for shirt required by using the same method, only this time we'll divide it by 5 instead of 3

    Number of package for shirt = 45 / 5

    Number of package for shirt = 9

    Therefore, the least number of package of caps required is 15 while that of shirt is 9
