Answer:
The next time they would play despacito on both stations is after 35 minutes.
Hence, 3:00pm + 35
= 3:35 pm
Step-by-step explanation:
The radio hot 97 plays despacito ft Justin beiber every 5 minutes. Another station Z 100 plays despacito every 7 minutes. Both stations at start 3:00 pm and what time will it be when despacito at the same time ?
Find and list multiples of time that despacito plays Radio hot 97 and Station Z 100.
Hence, we find the Multiples of 5 minutes and 7 minutes until the first common multiple is found. This is the lowest common multiple.
Multiples of 5:
5, 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45
Multiples of 7:
7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 49
Therefore, the first common multiple is found which is the lowest common multiple is 35
LCM(5, 7) = 35
The next time they would play despacito on both stations is after 35 minutes.
Hence, 3:00pm + 35
= 3:35 pm
