Two radio stations are playing this week's #1 hit song. One radio station plays the song every 18 minutes. The other radio station plays the song every 24 minutes. Both stations play the song at 3pm. How many minutes will pass before they play the same song again. (Only write the minutes.)

Answer :

Answer:

1) 12

2) 72

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The GCF of 36 and 24 is 12. So, each child would get 3 prizes and 2 balloons.

2) The LCM of 18 and 24 is 72. When the first radio station is playing the song for the fourth time, the second radio station will play the song for the third time. This will happen 72 minutes after they both play it for the first time.
