Question

Kanata goes for swimming lessons every 5 days while Wiyot goes every 6 days. If both Kanata and Wiyot had swimming lessons together at the pool today, after how many days will both meet again at the pool for lessons?

Answer 1

Answer:

okay so, here is it is,

Kanata and Wiyot will have their class together on the LCM day of their classes.

take it like this, their classes together is supposed to be a multiple of both of their classes. but the question mentions their first time meeting. hence , we will have least common multiple or LCM.

we have ,

5 = 5^1 × 1

6 = 6^1 × 1

for LCM we take highest power of exponent in both the cases.

that is, 6 × 5 = 30

hence they will have their classes together after every 30 days together.

hope it helped.
