▶ Given :-
→ Sherman goes golfing every 6th days .
→ Brad goes golfing every 7th.
▶ To find :-
→ How many days until they will go golfing on the same day again .
We have,
→ Sherman goes golfing every 6th days .
→ Brad goes golfing every 7th days .
The LCM of 6 and 7 is :-
==> 6 = 2 × 3 .
==> 7 = 7 × 1 .
•°• LCM( 6 , 7 ) = 2 × 3 × 7 = 42 .
This implies that , after 41 days from today OR on 42th days from today ,they will meet again for golfing .
✔✔ Hence, it is solved ✅✅.
