band practice, every 4th day : 4,8,12,16,20,24,28

Both band practice and swimming : 12th day, 24th day....so 2 days

Answer:

The answer is 2 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given:

After January 1 Aleta has band practice every 4th day and swimming lesson every 3rd day.

We will find the least common multiple of 3 and 4.

This is 12.

This means every 12th day Aleta will have both band practice swimming lessons.

In January, there are 31 days, so there will be 2 times when she will have both lessons, like on 12th and then on 24th.

Therefore, for 2 days in January, Aleta will have both band practice swimming lessons .
