Question 934859: One bus route takes 25 minutes and the other bus route takes 55 minutes both buses leave the bus stop at 6 am and run continuously what is the next time that the buses will be at the stop together ? Answer by josmiceli(19441) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! I want whole numbers and
such that:
This is saying:
( route time for bus a ) x ( number of time a's route repeated ) =
( route time for bus b ) x ( number of time b's route repeated )
I know that this would be true: , so I can start with
Divide both and by
This is ( total time for route a ) = ( total time for route b ), or
Add min to 6 AM
and = 10:35 AM
