16 packs of applesauce and 24 packs of fruit cups.

Step-by-step explanation:

If each fourth grader is receiving 1 apple sauce and 1 fruit cup then that means you want to have 96 apple sauces and 96 fruit cups. Okay if each pack of apple sauces contains 6 of them then you only need 16 of those because 16*6=96, and if each pack of fruit cups only contains 4 of them then you only need 24 packs because 24*4=96.
