- = 2^3 \times 5^2 = 8 \times 25 = 200 \text{ minutes}$$
Step 3: Convert 200 minutes to hours and minutes.
200minutes=3hoursand20 minutes
Step 4: Identify the common departure times within the 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM window.
The vehicles both depart at 8:00 AM.
The next common departure will be 3 hours and 20 minutes after 8:00 AM:
8:00AM+3hours20minutes=11:20 AM
The next common departure will be 3 hours and 20 minutes after 11:20 AM:
11:20AM+3hours20minutes=2:40 PM
The next common departure would be 3 hours and 20 minutes after 2:40 PM:
2:40PM+3hours20minutes=6:00 PM
This time (6:00 PM) is outside the specified range of 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM.
The times of the day when the two vehicles will leave the park at the same time are:
Part 3: How can traffic jam be controlled?
Traffic jams can be controlled through various strategies:
- Improved Public Transportation: Investing in efficient and accessible public transport reduces the number of private vehicles on the road.
- Traffic Management Systems: Implementing smart traffic lights, real-time traffic monitoring, and dynamic lane management can optimize traffic flow.
- Road Infrastructure Development: Expanding roads, building bypasses, and improving intersections can increase capacity and reduce bottlenecks.
- Encouraging Carpooling and Cycling: Promoting shared rides and non-motorized transport options can decrease individual vehicle usage.
- Congestion Pricing: Charging drivers for using roads during peak hours can deter non-essential travel and reduce congestion.
