Answer:

16 times

Explanation:

To find how many times Frankie and Ryan run on the same day in the next 100 days, find the common multiples of 3 days and 6 days to 100 days

Frankie (every third day) = 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 39, 42, 45, 48, 51, 54, 57, 60, 63, 66, 69, 72, 75, 78, 81, 84, 87, 90, 93, 96, 99.

Ryan (every sixth day) = 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96.

Common multiples of 3 days and 6 days = 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42, 42, 48, 54, 60, 66, 72, 78, 84, 90, 96.

Frankie and Ryan will run on the same day 16 times in the next 100 days
