170 is the smallest number which has a reminder of 2 when it is divided by 6,7 and 8

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The Least or Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) or Least Common Divisor (LCD).

For two integers a and b, denoted LCM (a, b), the LCM is the smallest positive integer that is evenly divisible by both a and b. The LCM of two or more numbers is the smallest number that is evenly divisible by all numbers in the set. Let find LCM of 6, 7 and 8.

             6=2 \times 3

             8=2 \times 2 \times 2

             7=7 \times 1

             L C M=2 \times 2 \times 2 \times 3 \times 7=168

We add 2 to LCM to get the smallest number which gives a remainder of 2.

So, the number is 168+ 2 = 170

Help, with solving rational equations! I am no good at it :( Solve for x: 2 over 5 plus 3 over 5 x equals quantity x plus 5 over
mamaluj [8]
If this is your equation: \frac{2}{5} + \frac{3}{5x} = \frac{x+5}{10}
Solution:
LCD for 5 and 5x is 5x
\frac{x}{x} ( \frac{2}{5} )+ \frac{3}{5x} = \frac{x+5}{10}
\frac{2x}{5x} + \frac{3}{5x} = \frac{x+5}{10}
\frac{2x+3}{5x} = \frac{x+5}{10}
10(2x+3)=5x(x+5) ←cross product
20x + 30 = 5x² + 25x  ←simplify with distributive property
0 = 5x² + 5x - 30 ←use inverse operations to collect all terms on one side
0 = x² + x - 6  ←if possible divide by numerical GCF (This case 5)
0 = (x + 3)(x - 2) ←Factor
x = -3 or x = 2
Please check by substitution in original equation... Both work

What else would need to be congruent to show that ABC =XYZ by SAS?<br> Given:<br> AB=XY<br> A=X
Sati [7]

ABC = XYZ  by  SAS

AB = XY    -     Side

A = X         -    Angle

So you want to find another congruent <em>side</em>.

Removing the taken possible side, two sides can be congruent.

Either :

BC = YZ

<em>OR</em>

AC = XZ
