A bookstore has a sale on days of the month that are multiples of 5 (such as June 5, June 10...). A shoe store has a sale every 6 days. The shoe store has a sale on July 3. How many times in July do the two stores have sales on the same date?

in July 15 the two stores have sale on the same date

Answer:

Once!

Step-by-step explanation:

The bookstore had a sale on any day with a factor of 5.

For the shoe store starting day 3, create a arithmetic sequence up to day 31, with a common difference of 6:

3, 9, 15, 21, 27, 30

Only 15 has a factor of 5! Therefore the stores only share one sale day on the 15th of July.
