Question

Alligator 1 initial weight is 4 lbs. the rate of growth is 2 lbs. per month. Alligator 2 initial weight is 8 lbs. the rate of growth is 1 lb per month. After how many months will both alligators weigh the same amount?

Answer 1

4 months.

Explanation:

So I added this "out" and the LCM (Least Common Multiple) is 12. So it'd take 4 months for both of them to hit 12 pounds.

Hope this helps and have a nice day!
