Start with finding the lowest common multiple
Which would be 2 ? then what ?
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?

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.
17 is the answer

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

Who is right
My answer: 17
I did 4 + 5 = 9 + 8 = 17
(Connexus 6th grade only)
(Please use in your own words copy and paste is a honor code violation)

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.
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
The play is every 6 days so it would be 5, 11,17. So she would have to choose on the 17th
Ok tysm @everyone but wtf is the right answer 17 or 21 I still don't get it.

Is it 25 or 17?? So confused rn :/
this question is so frustrating i have no idea what its trying to ask
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!
