Question

Lloyd is making goblins and elves on a video game. It takes 6 rounds to make a goblin and 8 rounds to make an elf. If he completes a goblin and an elf at the same time, after how many rounds will he complete another goblin and elf at the same time?

Answer 1

Answer:

24 rounds

Step-by-step explanation:

This question has to do with a factor of numbers which we refer to as:

Lowest common multiple.

Lowest common multiple can be defined as the Lowest multiple that is common to the multiple of two numbers.

We are told in the question that:

Lloyd is making goblins and elves on a video game. It takes 6 rounds to make a goblin and 8 rounds to make an elf.

We find the multiples of 6 and 8

6 = 1, 6, 12, 18, 24, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72 e.tc.

8 = 1, 8, 16, 24, 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 72, 80, 88, e.t.c

The Lowest Common Multiple: This is the least or lowest multiple that is common to both 6 and 8

= 24.

Therefore, it will take 24 rounds for Lloyd to complete another goblin and elf at the same time
