Respuestas a la pregunta
Mario takes his medication 13 times in 180 days, with Mondays and Tuesdays being consecutive days.
How many times will he take it on a Monday and then on Tuesday of the same week?
We know that Mario must take his medication for 180 days. He started taking medicine on Monday, so let's set up the pattern to find out how many times he will take the pills on Monday and Tuesday if he takes them two days in a row and skips one day.
The pattern is
- Monday, Tuesday
- Thursday, Friday
- Sunday, Monday
- Wednesday, Thursday
- Saturday, Sunday
- Tuesday, Wednesday
- Friday, Saturday
- Monday, Tuesday
With this pattern, we can observe that Mario takes his medication for one week and then skip it for two weeks.
If in 180 days there are 25 full weeks and five days, we can mark the pattern:
Weeks:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25
Days
1, 2, 3, 4, 5,
Following the pattern, we find out that Mario takes his medication 9 times in 180 days. Being Monday and Tuesday consecutive days.
