Answer:

The minimum number of flyers of each color is 16

Explanation:

Since they are trying to find the minimum number of flyers of each color, they are looking for the least common multiple. That means that are trying to find the number that corresponds to 4 and 16 at the lowest value.

Step 1: Find the LCM

4 can be multiplied by 4 to get 16

4 * 4 = 16

Answer: The minimum number of flyers of each color is 16
