First, you need to find the least common multiple, which is 12. Then you need to count on 12 school days from September 5th. So say that the 5th is on a Monday, so the next day would be the 6th, then Tuesday would be the 7th, and so forth.So keep counting. So the next time she needs to choose between cheer-leading and play practice would be the 21st. Hope this helped (:
