Find the greatest rational number r such that the ratios 8/15 ÷r and 18/35 ÷r are whole numbers.

Answer:

  2/105

Step-by-step explanation:

"r" is the greatest common divisor (GCD) of the two fractions. It can be found using Euclid's algorithm in the usual way.

  (8/15) - (18/35) = 56/105 - 54/105 = 2/105 . . . . . this is (8/15) mod (18/35)

We can see that the next step, division of 54/105 by 2/105, will produce a remainder of 0, so the GCD is 2/105.

The greatest rational number r is 2/105.

_____

<em>Check</em>

The ratios are (8/15)/(2/105) = 28; (18/35)/(2/105) = 27. These whole numbers are relatively prime, so there is no larger r than the one we found.

Find the missing letter which is N.the length is 25 in and the perimeter is 86 in <br>​
Illusion [34]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

length = 25 in

Perimeter = 86 in

2*(length + width) = 86

2*(25 + N) = 86

Divide both sides by 2

25 + N = 86/2

25 + N = 43

Subtract 25 from both sides

25 + N - 25 = 43 - 25

N = 18
