Answer 1

Answer:

Red bus if it takes no time to reach the bus from stadium.

Blue bus if it takes some time to reach the bus from stadium.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Red bus leaves the stadium every 6 minutes starting from 4:00 PM.

So, the timings for red bus are:

4:00 PM, 4:06 PM, 4:12 PM, 4:18 PM, 4:24 PM, 4:30 PM, 4:36 PM, 4:42 PM, ......

Blue bus leaves the stadium every 8 minutes starting from 4:00 PM.

So, the timings for Blue bus are:

4:00 PM, 4:08 PM, 4:16 PM, 4:24 PM, 4:32 PM, 4:40 PM, 4:48 PM, ......

Also Given that, game is over at 4:30 PM, so near to that time Red bus leaves at 4:30 PM and then Blue bus leaves at 4:32 PM.

Therefore, the answer is:

Red bus if it takes no time to reach the bus from stadium.

Blue bus if it takes some time to reach the bus from stadium.
