Can two numbers have a GCF that is bigger than their LCM? Explain how you know?

1 answer:

7 0

The answer to this question would be: No, they can't

Greatest common factor biggest possible value is the number value itself. There is no factor that bigger than the number.

But the least common multiple smallest possible value is the number. There is no multiple that smaller than the number.

So it is not possible to have GCF bigger than LCM.

-- The first urn has 9 balls in it all together, and 2 of them are white.
If you don't peek, then the prob of pulling out a white ball is 2/9 .

-- The second urn has 13 balls in it all together, and 3 of them are white.
If you don't peek, then the prob of pulling out a white ball is 3/13 .

-- The probability of being successful BOTH times is

(2/9) x (3/13) = ( 6/117 ) = about 0.0513 or 5.13% (rounded)

boyakko [2]

Answer:

<em>It will take 12 hours to fill the tank</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Proportions

Tap A fills a tank in 4 hours. It means each hour it fills 1/4 of the tank.

Tap B fills the tank in 3 hours. Each hour it fills 1/3 of the tank.

Tap C empties the tank when full in 2 hours. Each hour it empties 1/2 of the tank.

Each hour, the tank gets filled by:

$\displaystyle \frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2}=\displaystyle \frac{3}{12}+\frac{4}{12}-\frac{6}{12}=\frac{3+4-6}{12}=\frac{1}{12}$

Since the tank fills 1/12 of its capacity in one hour, it follows that it will take 12 hours to fill the tank
