Camryn practiced both the trumpet and the flute today.
How many days until Camryn practices the trumpet and flute again in the same day?

in 33 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Trumpet practice is every 11 days. Flute practice is every 3 days.

You need the Least Common Multiple (the LCM) of the two numbers, 3 and 11.

Since 3 and 11 are prime, the LCM of 3 and 11 is their product.

LCM = 3 * 11 = 33

in 33 days

You can also solve this by listing multiples of 3 and 11 until you find the smallest number that is a multiple of both 3 and 11.

Multiples of 3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24, 27, 30, 33, 36, 39, 42, ...

Multiples of 11: 11, 22, 33, 44, ...

The smallest multiple of both 3 and 11 is the smallest number that shows in both lists. It is 33.
