Date: 2011-05-21 05:44 am (UTC)It's exactly the same as the way that every so often, multiples of, say, 2, 3, and 5 coincide.
I'd write them out to demonstrate but LJ would eat my formatting...
but you get 6, then 10, then 12, then 15, and so on, then a whopper at 30, and on it goes. Add more primes and the pattern gets even more complex.
