Do you remember when you were learning about
Least Common Multiple (LCM) ?  And you were
wondering what on Earth you would ever need it for ?

THIS IS IT !

The amount of time after 8 PM when the lights will flash
together again is the LCM of 20 seconds and 30 seconds.
Do you remember how to find it ?

... When 20 is prime-factored, you have  2 · 2 · 5 .

... When 30 is prime-factored, you have  2 · 3 · 5 .

... So the Least Common Multiple of 20 and 30 is  2 · 2 · 3 · 5  =  60 .

The lighthouses will flash together again in 60 seconds after 8 PM.
That'll be  8:01 PM.

How do you work in detail the problem below?<br><br> 2x=3x+1
natta225 [31]
2x=3x+1
First, subtract 3x from both sides to get the variable on only one side
-x=1
Now, divide -x by -1 so that it can get rid of the negative sign and so the only thing remaining on the x's side is x.
Your final answer should be: x=-1
