Bus A and Bus B leave the bus depot at 3 pm. Bus A takes 25 minutes to complete its route once and bus B takes 30 minutes to complete its route once.
If both buses continue to repeat their route, at what time will they be back at the bus depot together?
Assume the buses have no breaks in between routes.
Give your answer as a 12-hour clock time.

5:30 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM of 25 and 50

= 150

= 150 ÷ 25 = 6

= 150 ÷ 30 = 5

= 150 = 2 Hours 30 Mins

= 3 + 2 hours 30 mins

= 5 : 30 PM

Step-by-step explanation:

Bus A leave depot at = 3pm

Bus B leave depot at = 3 pm

both leave depot at 3 pm so

Bus A complete its route in25 mins

Bus A reach at his point at 3:25 pm

Bus B complete its route in 30 mins

Bus B reach at his point at 3:30 pm

So

If the buses go back to depot it will take 25 mins so Bus A reach back at depot at 3:50 pm

Bus B at 4:00 pm

all it means is function 3

probably .5

i can on others if necessary.
