Assuming that he doesn't have a few snacks then he would need to buy 5 bags of Peanuts. But how many bags does he wish to fill? The answer is extremely variable if that key element is forgotten.

Leroy Cooke · Answer 2

He would need to buy 5 bags:

2 = (12/6) so:

(5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) + (5/6) = 60/6

(12/6) + (12/6) + (12/6) + (12/6) + (12/6) = 60/6
