...which one?
Auto comment: topic has been updated by ankit_18 (previous revision, new revision, compare).
Your link in the original post is broken :(
You can solve that problem using the Chinese Remainder Theorem. You want to find the first time they collide x where:
Once you have this x, you can add the LCM of m and a to x until it is >= max(n, k). (you can math the second part out to solve it in O(1), plus CRT stuff)
Thanks Can u explain it more in psuedo code format please??
No man, I'm not going to write out psuedocode that solves the Chinese remainder theorem for you after I just gave you a link to learn it if you won't even fix the link on your question.
Here is a good youtube tutorial which helped me learn it, if you struggle reading through the Wikipedia article.
If what I wrote still doesn't make sense after you understand CRT, then this is probably a little bit too difficult of a problem for you to be solving at the moment. It might be more helpful to practice on easier problems until you are a bit more comfortable on implementation and then come back to this in a few weeks or so.
Yes you r ri8..I should solve the easier problem first btw thanks for ur time
