Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 26E
2100
Explanation of Solution
Given information:
Life cycle of Cicada is 17 yr. and that of Tent Caterpillar is 6 years.
Calculation:
Number of years after which Cicadas and tent caterpillars coincide is equal to LCM of 17 and 6.
Prime factors of 17 and 6 are as follows:
Therefore LCM =
Hence Cicadas and tent caterpillars will coincide again after 102 years from 1998. Thus they will coincide in year 2100.
