The manager of a radio station decides that on each successive evening (7 days per week), a beethoven piano sonata will be played followed by a beethoven symphony followed by a beethoven piano concerto. for how many years could this policy be continued before exactly the same program would have to be repeated? (assume there are 365 days in a year. round your answer up to the nearest whole number.)

3 years, 11 months and 10 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Beethoven wrote

32 piano sonatas

9 symphonies

5 piano concertos

By the fundamental principle of counting there are

32 times 9 times 5 ways of combining these pieces in the required order.

32 times 9 times 5 = 1,440

As there are 365 days in a year, the policy decided by the manager could be continued during

1,440/365 = 3.9452 years.

But 3.9452 years = 3 years + 0.9452 years.

As 1 year equals 12 months

0.9452 years = 11.3424 months

11.3424 months = 11 months+0.3424 months

As 1 month = 30 days

0.3424 months = 10.27 days = 10 days rounded to the nearest integer

So, the manager could continue this policy for

3 years, 11 months and 10 days without repeating the program.
