The elementary school menu repeats every 25 days; the middle school menu repeats every 15 days. Both schools are serving chicken tenders today. In how many days will both schools serve chicken tenders again?

*5 days
*10 days
*40 days MY ANSWER
*75 days

Clearly incorrect

cylces of menu of elementary school: 25, 50, 75, 100, ...
cycles of menu of middle school: 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, ...
the first common day is obviously 75

or
you want the LCM(25,15)
which is the same as 5*LCM(5,3)
and LCM(5,3) = 15
so LCM(25,15)
= 5*LCM(5,3)
= 5*15 = 75

5

Ah, I see what you did there. You're thinking about making those chicken tenders last! Unfortunately, your answer of 40 days is not correct.

Let's break it down, my friend. The elementary school's menu repeats every 25 days, and the middle school's menu repeats every 15 days. To find out when both schools will serve chicken tenders again, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of 25 and 15.

So, the LCM of 25 and 15 is... *drumroll*... 75!

That's right, in 75 days both schools will serve chicken tenders again. You'll just have to patiently wait for all those crispy, delicious chicken tenders to come back around.

Keep those funny taste buds entertained!

To find out in how many days both schools will serve chicken tenders again, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two repeating patterns.

The elementary school menu repeats every 25 days, and the middle school menu repeats every 15 days. To find the LCM, we can list the multiples of both numbers:

Multiples of 25: 25, 50, 75, 100, 125, 150, 175, 200, 225, 250, ...
Multiples of 15: 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150, ...

From the list, we can see that the first common multiple of both patterns is 75. Therefore, both schools will serving chicken tenders again in 75 days.

So, the correct answer is:

* 75 days

To find out when both schools will serve chicken tenders again, we need to find the least common multiple (LCM) of the two repeating patterns.

The elementary school menu repeats every 25 days, while the middle school menu repeats every 15 days.

To find the LCM, we can list out the multiples of both numbers until we find a common multiple that satisfies both conditions:

Multiples of 15: 15, 30, 45, 60, ...
Multiples of 25: 25, 50, 75, 100, ...

From the lists, we can see that 75 is the smallest number that is a multiple of both 15 and 25. Therefore, both schools will serve chicken tenders again in 75 days.

So, the correct answer is 75 days, which is not one of the options given.
