An advantage of different emergence patterns for two species of a swarming insect is that they rarely emerge the same year to compete for food. Suppose that type A of the insect has a 5-year emergence cycle and type B of the insect has a 19-year cycle. If both species of the insect emerged during 2011 , when is the next year that both species will emerge during the same year?
