The answer is 144.

AC and CE have the same ratio as BA and DE. So you can get the answer by getting their proportions. 

<u>  84  </u> =  <u> 7 </u>
156-x     x 

Cross multiply, transpose, and simplify to get the variable x.

84x = 1092-7x
84x + 7x = 1092
91x = 1092
x = 12

To get AC, substitute. 

AC = 156 - x
AC = 156 - 12
AC = 144

To find the answer, you need to find the LCM of 3 and 5. It's 15, meaning that every 15 days, you will have both lessons on the same day. Have an awesome day! :)
