Answer:

Lucas and Zoe will both next visit their mother on 7th of May at the same time.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find the first multiple that can be divisible by 5 and 8:

40 is divisible by 5 and 8.

Second, find the days in April and subtract 7 from the days:

April=30 days.

30-7= 23 days.

Finally, subtract 23 from 40 and find it in the next month, which is May:

40-23=17

Therefore, they will both next visit their mother on the 7th of May.
