304
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the common multiples:
Multiples of 6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48
Multiples of 9: 9, 18, 27, 36, 45
The common multiples are 18 and 36
The first person in line to get both free would be the 18th person and then the 36th person.
So she is correct that the 36th person would get both free, but they wouldn't be the first person to do it.
see below
The formula for the amount resulting from P earning interest at rate r continuously compounded is ...
A = Pe^(rt)
for P=2500 and r=0.12, this becomes ...
A = 2500e^(0.12t)
