6. Along the coast there are 3 lighthouses, whose lights can be seen blinking at night by
sailors near the shore. The first light shines for 3 seconds then is off for 3 seconds and
repeats. The second light shines for 4 seconds then is off for 4 seconds and repeats.
The third light shines for 5 seconds then is off for 5 seconds and repeats. All three
lights have just come on together.
(a) When is the first time the three lights will all be off at the same time?
(b) When is the next time all three lights will come on at the same moment?
(c) For a sailor off-shore, how many "light-on" blinks will she see between the two
times all three come on together?

A particular two-player game starts with a pile of diamonds and a pile of rubies. Onyour turn, you can take any number of diamonds, or any number of rubies, or an equalnumber of each. You must take at least one gem on each of your turns. Whoever takesthe last gem wins the game. For example, in a game that starts with 5 diamonds and10 rubies, a game could look like: you take 2 diamonds, then your opponent takes 7rubies, then you take 3 diamonds and 3 rubies to win the game.You get to choose the starting number of diamonds and rubies, and whether you gofirst or second. Find all starting configurations (including who goes first) with 8 gemswhere you are guaranteed to win. If you have to let your opponent go first, what arethe starting configurations of gems where you are guaranteed to win? If you can’t findall such configurations, describe the ones you do find and any patterns you see.

The Rahmans (R) have 5 family members, the Khans (K) have 3, Sarkars (S) 2, and the Hasans (H) 2. They buy a movie-ticket for each member. During the intermission, R goes to the concession-stand and buys 5 large popcorns. K buys 2. S and the H buy 1 and 0 respectively. Once the movie ends, the families go to an ice-cream parlour nearby. R orders 4 scoops of ice-cream and 2 coffees. K orders 2 scoops of ice-cream and 3 coffees. S orders 4 scoops of ice-cream and 2 coffees. H orders 1 scoops of ice-creams and 2 coffees.
