Answer:

Hey there!

To solve this problem, we want to find the LCM (least common multiple) of the two numbers.

The numbers are 25 and 30.

25=5x5

30=2x3x5

LCM is 5x5x2x3, or 150.

Thus, in 150 minutes is when the next bus will leave.

150 mins is equal to 2 hours and 30 mins, or 2.5 hours.

8 AM + 2.5 hrs = 10:30 AM.

Thus, the next time the busses leave together would be at 10:30 AM.

Let me know if this helps :)
