Question

the high school lunch menu repeats every 6 school days the middle school lunch menu reapeat every 8 school days on march 5th both school served chicken wraps what is the next calendar date on which both schools will serve chicken wraps

Answer 1

Hey! Hope that I can help.

To do this, I circled all the dates on the attached calendar, with red = middle and blue = high. The 6th of March in 2018 is when both schools will have chicken wraps again.

Answer 2

We need to find the lowest common multiple of 6 and 8...and that number would be 24. So 24 days from March 5 is when they will both happen again.
So thats gonna make it March 29.
