Jessica’s Catering Service bakes and delivers lasagnas to parties and group meetings. In a typical week, Jessica has around 40 orders. Each order involves a specific amount of the required lasagna in pounds. A small group would need about 20 pounds, whereas a large group would need almost triple that amount. The following table shows the different customer orders that have come in this week, grouped into eight categories by weight.

5 points: How many six-pound trays and ten-pound trays should Jessica use for each of the orders?
