Answer:

26 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The mean age of 9 women = 27 years old

The mean age of 7 men = 25 years old

Question asked:

What is the mean age (nearest year) of all the people in the office?

solution:

By using, mean = sum of observations divided by number of entities

The mean age of 9 women = 27 years old

\frac{sum of ages}{number of women} = 27

Sum  of ages of women = 27 \times9 = 243\\ years

The mean age of 7 men = 25 years old

\frac{sum of ages}{number of men} = 25

sum of ages of men = 25 \times7 = 175

Total sum of ages of men and women in the office = 243 + 175

                                                                                     = 418 years

Total number of people in the office = 9 women + 7 men = 16

The mean age of all the people in the office = Total sum of ages of men and women in the office divided by Total number of people in the office

                                                                         = \frac{418}{16}  = 26.125

Therefore,  the mean age (nearest year) of all the people in the office = 26 years

-12 - (-5) = -7

-13 - (-5) = -8

-20 - (-4) = -16

-22 - (-11) = -11

10 - (-12) = 22

-3 - 2 = -5

-4 - 6 = -10

-5 - 5 = -10

0 - 6 = -6

Kobe has collected 750 football cards and 660 baseball cards. He wants to divide them into piles so that each pile has only one
Harrizon [31]

Answer: 30 cards

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the greatest possible number of cards in each pile such that there is the same number of cards in each​ pile we need to find the greatest common factor of 750 and 660.

Using Euclid division method , we have

750=1(660)+90\\\\660=7(90)+30\\\\90=3(30)+0

Hence, the greatest common factor of 750 and 660 = 30

Thus, there will be 30 cards in each pile.
