. At a local bakery, all loaves of wheat bread come with 19 slices, while all loaves of rye bread come with 20 slices. If Grayson bought the same number of slices of each type of bread, what is the smallest number of slices of each type that Grayson could have bought?

To find the smallest number in common we multiply both numbers. Then we get 19 * 20 = 380 slices of bread. Sometimes we can divide this outcome by 2 and still have a good answer. In this case we would get 380 / 2 = 190 and that would be wrong.

Hence, the answer is 380.
