1) In class you worked with a "big" cube made of 27 smaller cubes each of which was 1 cmby 1 cm by 1 cm. Suppose you had 150 of

the small cubes, what is the largest "big" cubeyou could make? How do you know?

The information provided is that you have smaller cubes that measure 1 cm on either of the three sides. In order words if you lie each cube side by side you would have the length/width/height of the indicate sides.

For a cube made up of 27 smaller cubes, you can determine the length of each side by factoring the entire size provided. That means for a cube made up of 27 smaller cubes you would have;

27=3\times3\times3

This means you would have 3 smaller cubes on the length, 3 smaller cubes on the width and 3 smaller cubes on the height.

Therefore, if you now have 150 of the smaller cubes, by factoring this you would have the following possibility;

\begin{gathered} 150=2\times3\times5\times5 \\ 150=6\times5\times5 \end{gathered}

This means you would have one side (length) 6 cubes, on another side (width) 5 cubes and on the third side (height) 5 cubes.

That means with 150 smaller cubes you could make a cube with the dimensions,

\begin{gathered} \text{Length}=6\operatorname{cm} \\ \text{Width}=5\operatorname{cm} \\ \text{Height}=5\operatorname{cm} \end{gathered}

ANSWER:

The largest big cube you could make would be a 6 cm by 5 cm by 5cm big cube

Mr .Baker has baked some muffins. If he packs them in boxes of 4, he will have 3 left over. If he packs them in boxes of 5, he w
babunello [35]

Answer:

\boxed{43}

Step-by-step explanation:

I think the easiest way to solve this problem is by brute force: trial and error.

We must find numbers that when divided by  

  • 4 leave 3 (4n + 3)
  • 5 leave 3 (5n + 3)
  • 6 leave 1  (6n + 1)

Here is a list of multiples of the integer n that satisfy the three conditions. \begin{array}{c|ccc}\mathbf{n} & \mathbf{4n+ 3} & \mathbf{5n + 3} & \mathbf{6n + 1}\\1 & 7 & 8 & 7\\2 & 11 & 13 & 13\\3 & 15 & 18 & 19\\4 & 19 & 23 & 25\\5 & 23 & 28 & 31\\6 & 27 & 33 & 37\\7 & 31 & 38 & \mathbf{43}\\8 & 35 & \mathbf{43} & 49\\9 & 39 & 48 & 55\\10 & \mathbf{43} & 53 & 61\\\end{array}\\\text{The only number that is common to all three lists is $\mathbf{43}$.}\\\text{The smallest possible number of muffins Mr. Baker could have baked is $\boxed{\mathbf{43}}$.}

Check:

43 \div 4 = 10R3\\43 \div5 = 8R3\\43 \div 6 = 7R1

OK .
