You are choreographing a circus show with various animals. For one act, you are given two kangaroos on a number line ready to jump in the positive direction (i.e, toward positive infinity). The first kangaroo starts at location x1 and moves at a rate of v1 meters per jump. The second kangaroo starts at location x2 and moves at a rate of v2 meters per jump. You have to figure out a way to get both kangaroos at the same location at the same time as part of the show. If it is possible, return

There will be two arrays of integers. Determine all integers that satisfy the following two conditions: The elements of the first array are all factors of the integer being considered The integer being considered is a factor of all elements of the second array These numbers are referred to as being between the two arrays. Determine how many such numbers exist. Example a=[2,4] b=[24,36] There are two numbers between the arrays: 6 and 12. 6%2=0, 6%6=0, 24%6=0 and 36%6=0 for the f
