Beyond the Answer
To find out when Tahrell will have both classes again, we need to determine the least common multiple (LCM) of the two class frequencies: 5 days and 9 days. The LCM of 5 and 9 is 45 days (since they have no common factors). Starting from October 19, adding 45 days brings us to December 3 (since October has 31 days and we have 12 more days in November). So, Tahrell will have both classes again on December 3. Let's look at this in a fun way: if October 19 was the last day he had double trouble with both classes, then by December 3, he’ll be back for another round of nutrition and respiratory therapy sessions—mark it on your calendar, because that's a date you want to remember! Each class is like a dance: nutrition has its rhythm every 5 days, while respiratory therapy sways in every 9 days. When they find their groove together, it just dances into December—how exciting!
