AI Thread Summary
The discussion revolves around the meeting schedules of five cultural groups—literary, dramatic, musical, dancing, and painting—starting from January 1, 1975. Each group meets at different intervals: literary every other day, dramatic every third day, musical every fourth day, dancing every fifth day, and painting every sixth day. In the first quarter of 1975, all five groups met on the same day only once, which was March 2, 1975. Additionally, there were 24 days in the first quarter when none of the groups met, starting from January 2, 1975. The year 1975 is noted as a non-leap year, which simplifies the calculations regarding the meeting schedules.

My club has five cultural groups. They are literary, dramatic, musical, dancing and painting groups. The literary group meets every other day, the dramatic every third day, the musical every fourth day, the dancing every fifth day and painting every sixth day. The five groups met on the new years day of 1975 and starting from that day they met regularly according to schedule.
Now, can you tell how many times did all five meet on one and the same day in the first quarter? The new years day excluded.
Also, were there any days when none of the groups met in the first quarter, and how many?

Including Jan. 2, 1975; there were 24 days in which no group met.

If I understood the question correctly.
 
Just ONCE, I wanted to see a post titled Status Update that was not a blatant, annoying spam post by a new member. So here it is. Today was a good day here in Northern Wisconsin. Fall colors are here, no mosquitos, no deer flies, and mild temperature, so my morning run was unusually nice. Only two meetings today, and both went well. The deer that was road killed just down the road two weeks ago is now fully decomposed, so no more smell. Somebody has a spike buck skull for their...
