Answer 1

Answer:

The next time she will have both meetings on the same day again is 24 days time

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The frequency of the Junior Optimist club meeting = Every 3 days

The frequency of the Drama club meeting = Every 8th day

The club meeting Anna will attend today = Both meetings

The next time she will have both meetings on the same day again is given as follows;

The next time she will have both meetings on the same day again = The number of days the complete cycles of both meetings will coincide = The product of the cycles of both meetings

The next time she will have both meetings on the same day again = 8 × 3 = 24 days

The next time she will have both meetings on the same day again = 24 days time.
