Asked by Kristin "Ms Sue"

Patsy has cheerleading practice on every fourth school day. She wants to be in the school play, but they have practice on every sixth school day. If both started on September 5th, what would be the first date that she has to choose between cheerleading and play practice?

I have no idea what to do or where to start? I have no help but you guys. Please help?

Start with finding the lowest common multiple
Answered by Tia
Which would be 2 ? then what ?
Answered by Steve
what's the smallest number divisible by both 4 and 6?

12

But that does not solve the problem. What is the date 12 school days after Sept.5?

12 school days is 2 weeks + 2 days. So, if 9/5 is M-W, you will only have two weekends to count. If it's Thu or Fri, you have a 3rd weekend to include.

And what about Labor Day?
Answered by Steve
Now, if you had said "earliest possible" date, then we'd have 9/21.

Thank you we understand, but I agree with all the what ifs.This was the most frustriting math problem.

She will have to choose only one on the 25th.
Cheer leading days are:5, 9, 13, 17, 21, and 25th
Play practice days are:5, 10,15,20, an 25th
Both activities take place on the 25th, therefore, the 25th of November is your answer
on cheerleading days the number increases by 4 and on play days the number increases by 6 every time

Least Common Multiple for 4 and 6 is 12 that is LCM(4, 6) = 12



12 days after September 5th is September 17th



September 17th will be the first date that she has to choose between cheerleading and play practice.

Omg, I was confused and I did not understand anything, but thx to @Naruto Uzumaki, I got an A, maybe your test is different and you may get a different answer but that is that. Just listen to this-

12 days after September 5th is September 17th, September 17th will be the first date that she has to choose between cheerleading and play practice.
What do you get from that????

Answered by child of misses Sue
the answer is 17, if she has cheerleading practice and her play stuff, she would have to go on the 11-12 and then it would go up to 17

@Allison...posting answers to Connections assessment questions is also an Honor Code violation.
Answered by Gonzalez
The answer is 17. Cheerleading is every 4 days so it starts on the 5th day which would be 5, 9,13,17
The play is every 6 days so it would be 5, 11,17. So she would have to choose on the 17th

Is it 25 or 17?? So confused rn :/
Answered by brian
this question is so frustrating i have no idea what its trying to ask
Answered by pie cake
The answer the Sep. 17

Explanation:
1. First we have the first days she goes to her practices (4 and 6)

2. Now we need to find the least common factor of 4 and 6

4: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28
6: 6, 12, 18, 24, 30

Do you see the least common factor?

Now we have the number 12, BUT also in the problem they gave us another date. Sep. 5, now you can assume we can add 12 to Sep 5 to get our finale answer.

(12+5=)

And there you go, hope this helps!
