Asked by Bill

It is the grand opening of a local supermarket. Every 5th customer will receive a coupon for a free turkey and every 7th customer will receive a coupon for a free half gallon of ice cream. If 400 customers come in on opening day, how many people will get both a coupon for a free turkey and a coupon for a free half gallon of ice cream?

Common factors of 5 and 7 in 400.

LCM of 5 and 7 is 35
400/35 = 11R3.
So there are 11 customers in the 400 who will get both.
80 Will get free turkey and 57 will get free half gallon of ice cream.
