Question 24
There are five types of candy boxes: A contains 1 candy, B contains 2, C contains 3, D contains 4, and E contains 5. Tiffy chooses four different types and buys the same positive number of boxes of each chosen type. Odus also chooses four types and buys the same positive number of boxes of each of his chosen types. His set of four types differs from Tiffy’s; his number of boxes per type need not equal hers. They buy the same total number of candies. What is the least number of candies Tiffy could buy?
