Anthony plans to ride 175 km on his bike and Samanta plans to ride 250km. They both plan to complete their journeys in a whole number of days.

How many kilometres could each person travel if they both ride the same number of kilometres each day.
How many days will each person have to ride for each common factor you found in part (a). Explain

175 = 5*5*7

250 = 2 * 5 * 5 * 5

I assume they both plan to complete their journey in the same whole number of days...

The only factors in common are 5 or 25.
Using 5 days, then Anthony needs to ride 35km/day, and Sam needs to ride 50km/day

If 25 days, then A=7km/day and S=10km/day.

I'd say they take 5 days.

i agree my dear

To find out how many kilometers each person could travel if they both ride the same number of kilometers each day, we need to find the common factors of 175 and 250.

Step 1: Find the factors of 175
The factors of 175 are 1, 5, 7, 25, 35, and 175.

Step 2: Find the factors of 250
The factors of 250 are 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50, 125, and 250.

Step 3: Find the common factors
The common factors of 175 and 250 are 1 and 5.

Therefore, if they both ride the same number of kilometers each day, Anthony and Samanta can travel 1 km or 5 km each day.

Now, let's calculate how many days each person will have to ride for each common factor (1 km and 5 km) found in part (a).

For 1 km:
Anthony will have to ride 175 days (175 km / 1 km per day).
Samanta will have to ride 250 days (250 km / 1 km per day).

For 5 km:
Anthony will have to ride 35 days (175 km / 5 km per day).
Samanta will have to ride 50 days (250 km / 5 km per day).

So, if they both ride the same number of kilometers each day, Anthony can travel 1 km or 5 km per day and will need to ride for either 175 or 35 days, while Samanta can also travel 1 km or 5 km per day and will need to ride for either 250 or 50 days.

i do not agree because it is not asking for the same amount of days its asking for the days sepretly and im asking a smart person-what is the answer for b) because this is homework from the textbook
