30 POINTS!!!!!

A bus in Atalanta leaves the main station every 6 minutes, a bus in Macon leaves the main station every 9 minutes at 7:03 buses leave the station in both Atalanta and Macon. when will buses leave both at the same time again?

Answer 1

Find the multiples of each number:

6= 6, 12, 18, 24

9 = 9, 18, 27

The least common multiple is 18, so every 18 minutes they will leave at the same time,

Add 18 minutes to the given time to get 7:21
