For this question, you will need to find the least common multiple. You will need to list the multiples of 3 and list the multiples of 5 until you run in to a number that is on both lists. The smallest number on both lists will be your answer, which in this case, will be 15.

ok 3 x 5 is 15 and vice versa so it would take them 3 weeks to do so
