let total people be x
x/4+x/3+3+2x/5=x
lcm=60
15x+20x+180+24x=x(60)
59x-60x=-180
-x=-180
x=180
x/4+x/3+3+2x/5=x
lcm=60
15x+20x+180+24x=x(60)
59x-60x=-180
-x=-180
x=180

Answer:
let total people be x
X upon 4 + X upon 3 + 2 X upon 5 is equal to X
LCM is equal to 60
15 X + 20 X + 180 + 24 x is equal to 60x
59 x minus 60 x is equal to minus 180
minus x is equal to minus 180
minus minus cancel
x is equal to 180
