\bf \textit{area of a rectangle}\\\\
A=lw\quad 
\begin{cases}
l=length\\
w=width\\
-----\\
A=285
\end{cases}\implies 285=lw\implies \boxed{\cfrac{285}{w}=l}
\\\\\\
\textit{perimeter of a rectangle}\\\\
P=2(l+w)\quad 
\begin{cases}
l=\frac{285}{w}\\\\
P=68
\end{cases}\implies 68=2\left( \boxed{\cfrac{285}{w}}+w \right)
\\\\\\
\cfrac{68}{2}=\cfrac{285}{w}+w\implies 34=\cfrac{285+w^2}{w}\implies 34w=285+w^2

\bf 0=w^2-34w+285\implies 0=(w-19)(w-15)\implies w=
\begin{cases}
19\\
15
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{lenght}{l}=
\begin{cases}
\frac{285}{19}\implies &15\\\\
\frac{285}{15}\implies &19
\end{cases}

Bubbles bakery has 24 oatmeal cookies, 36 vanilla bean cookies, 42 chocolate chip cookies. What is the greatest common factor bu
STatiana [176]

Answer:6

Step-by-step explanation:

We have three groups of cookies as follows:

24   oatmeal

36   vanilla bean

42  chocolate chip

If we breack down into factors we get

24    2       24 = 2³ * 3        36    2   36 = 2²*3³         42   2   42 = 2*3*7

12     2                                 18    2                              21   3

6      2                                   9    3                                7   7

3      3                                   3    3                                1

1                                             1

Fom where we can get that biggest common factor is 6

24 ÷  6      =  4

36 ÷  6      =  6

42 ÷  6      =  7

Then Bakery will have  4 groups of oatmeal cookies, 6 of vanilla bean, and 7 chocolate chip

The hour hand of a clock moves from 6
svp [43]
90 degrees. Looking at a clock, 12 o'clock going all the way around and back is a 360 degree spin. So 12, 3, 6, and 9 are all 1/4 of a 360 degree spin. If you divide 360 by, you would get a 90 degree turn for each of those numbers mentioned above.
