Answer: Every 12th bag has both a T-shirt and socks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: T shirt: Every fourth bag

Socks: Every third bag

Least common multiple of 4 and 3 = 12 as 4 and 3 are coprime (i.e. their highest common factor is 1) and 4 x 3 = 12

It implies every 12th bag has both a T-shirt and socks.

Hence, Every twelfth bag has both a T-shirt and socks.

the dog needs a 1/3 of a cup of dog food each day. the bag holds 5 cups of dog food how many days will it last ?

sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

15 days

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 5 cups of food, and you give him 1/3 a day.

So, <em>5 divided by 1/3</em>, which would get you 15 days. Or you could cross-multiply, meaning you multiply across, but in this case I just made them line up so you can see how to do it. $(food)/(cupsperday) = 5/\frac{1}{3} \\OR\\\frac{(food)}{1}*(cupsperday) = \frac{5}{1} *\frac{3}{1}$
