    24th Day

    Step-by-step explanation:

    1.) Evaluate Data

    Marco washes his car every 8 days. Marco fills his car with gas every 3 days. The question is asking when Marco will wash his car and fill it with gas.

    2.) Solve

    Find common factors for the two numbers:

    3: 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, 18, 21, 24

    8: 8, 16, 24

    3 and 8 share 24 as a common factor.

    3) Conclusion

    Since the 3 and 8 share a common factor of 24 Marco will wash his car and fill it with gas every 24th day.
