Answer:

Least number of equal length = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Arnold had three pieces of different colored strings that are all the same length. Arnold cut the string

Blue- 2 equal size length

Red- 3 equal size length

Green- 6 equal size length

To find : The least number of equal size lengths each color string could have

Solution :  To find the least number we find the least common multiples of 2,3,6 or L.C.M of 2,3,6

Multiple of 2 = 2,4,6,8....

Multiple of 3 = 3,6,9....

Multiple of 6 = 6,12,18....

So the least number of equal length is 6.

or   L.C.M of 2,3,6 = 6      

Therefore, 6 is the least number of equal size lengths each color string could have.

205 1/5 is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

break down the 3-D figure

Find area of triangle A=1/2bh

=1/2(8 inch)(6   9/10inch)

=1/2(8 inch)(69/10 inch)

=138/5 square inch

then multiply two because you have 2 triangles

=138/5 (2)  

= 276/5 square inch

= 55 1/5 sq.in

Find area of rectangle

A = lw

=6 1/4 in (8 in)

= 25/4 (8 in.)

= 50 sq. in.

then multiply by 3 because of the three rectangles

= 50 sq. inch (3)

= 150 sq. in.

Add all together

55 1/5 sq. inch + 150 sq. inch = 205 1/5 sq. inch
