THE ONE TO DO SO WILL BE MARKED BRAINIEST AND WILL BE THANKED

To get the answer we just have to sum the days beginning in September 5th. We know that cheerleading practices are every fourth day, and school play is every sixth day. So, we need to sum this days and see when they will match.

Days of cheerleading practice:

5, 9, 13, 17, 21, 25, 29...

Days of school play:

5, 11, 17, 23, 29...

So, basically, the first day when Patsy will be able to do only one activity is on September 17th, she will have both activities the same day. The second day this will happen would be September 29th.

Based on the above information, the calculation is as follows:

Days of cheerleading practice should be 5,9,13,17,21,25,29...

Days of school play should be 5,11,17,23,29...
