Find the lowest common multiple=
8= 8,16,24,32,40,48
6=6,12,18,24,30,36
the lowest common multiple is 24 so then
4/8>>>>?/24 you times 8 by 3 to get 24 so you times 4 by 3 which equals 12 so it would be 12/24 (or a half)
then
4/6>>>>?/24 you times 6 by 4 to get 24 so you times 4 by 4 which equals 16 so it would be 16/24

12/24(4/8) is greater or less than 16/24(4/6)
it is less than. :)

Answer: each of the students took 1/4 of an eraser home.

(1/2)/2 = 1/2 × 1/2 = 1/4 of an eraser. Converting to decimal, it becomes 0.25 of an eraser.

Find the highest common factor (H.C.F) OF 168 and 252.

blondinia [14]

Let's first write all the factors of 168 and 252.

168 - <span>1,2,3,4,6,7,8,12,14,21,24,28,42,56,84,168</span>
252 - 1,2,3,4,6,7,9,12,14,18,21,28,36,42,63,84,126,252

84 is the GCF because 84 is greatest common factor of 168 and 252.

So, 84 is the GCF

Hope this helps.. :)
