Alek and Ann start walking around a track at the same time and at the same place. It takes Ann 6 minutes to walk around the trac
k, and it takes Alek 8 minutes. After how many minutes will they reach the starting point at the same time
1 answer:
Answer:
3 3/7 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
This calculated using the formula:
1/x + 1/y = 1/n
Where
x = Number of minutes it took Ann to walk = 6 minutes
y = Number of minutes it took Alek to walk = 8 minutes
n = Number of minutes it would take An and Alek to reach the starting point at the same time
1/6 + 1/8 = 1/n
Lowest Common Denominator = 24
4 + 3/24 = 1/n
7/24 = 1/n
Cross Multiply
7n = 24
n = 24/7
n = 3 3/7 minutes
It would take them 3 3/7 minutes to reach the starting point at the same time.
