Boris and Michael are jogging around a lake.
\n" ); document.write( " It takes Boris 6 minutes to complete a lap and
\n" ); document.write( " Michael takes 8 minutes.
\n" ); document.write( "After completing each lap, the boys take a rest,
\n" ); document.write( " Boris for one minute
\n" ); document.write( " and Michael for two minutes.
\n" ); document.write( "Then they continue jogging.
\n" ); document.write( "If they started jogging together, how long, in minutes, does it take until they are next together?
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Include the rest times in the times to complete each lap except the final lap of each. B requires 7 min per lap, M requires 10 min
\n" ); document.write( "They should be together again at 69 min
\n" ); document.write( "Least common multiple of 7 and 10 is 70 min, B will complete 10 laps: 9(7)+6 = 69 min, M will complete 7 laps: 6(10) + 8 = 68 min, wait 1 min when B joins him at 69 min
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
