6, start superscript, t, h, end superscript day and Brad goes golfing every 7^\text{th}7 th

7, start superscript, t, h, end superscript day.

If Sherman and Brad both went golfing today, how many days until they will go golfing on the same day again?

Answer 1

Answer: 42nd day

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Sherman goes for playing golf every 6th day

And,

Brad goes for playing golf every 7th day

Also, Sherman and Brad both went for playing golf today.

Now, we need to find "the day at which they will go for playing golf together again".

This could be found by calculating for the common multiple of 6 & 7 i.e., we have to find the L.C.M. of 6 & 7 to get the answer.

Therefore,

L.C.M. of 6 & 7 = 6 * 7 = 42

Thus, it will be on the 42nd day, when Sherman and Brad go golfing together again.
