Answer:

The greatest number that she can have is 5 groups

Step-by-step explanation:

This question plays on words, but refers to a concept that is quite familiar, and that is the Highest Common Factor of the two groups. The answer to this question is the highest number that can divide both group numbers without remainder.

15 boys: 3 × 5

10 girls: 2 × 5

So, she would have 5 groups, each having 3 boys and 2 girls

What is the converse of the following statement? If a number is odd, it is not divisible by two.
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Converse in discrete mathematics is switching the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement.

So the correct answer will be that If a number is not divisible by two, then it is an odd number. Which is option D.

The math converse of a statement switches the if and then, resulting in a statement that may or may not be true so we have no guarantee that the preposition is true or not.

The ratio of cars to trucks is 9:4. The ratio of trucks to SUV's is 12:21. There are 54 cars.
Elenna [48]

Answer:

Number of trucks = 24

Number of SUVs = 24

Step-by-step explanation:

A)

The ratio of cars to trucks is 9:4

The total ratio of cars to trucks is

9+4 = 13

Let x = sum of cars and trucks.

There are 54 cars. Therefore,

x = 54 + t trucks

Number of cars = ratio of cars/ total ratio × sum of cars and trucks. This means,

54 = 9/13 × x

9x / 13 = 54

9x = 13 × 54

9x = 702

x = 702 / 9 = 78

x = 54 + t trucks = number of trucks = 78 = 54 + t trucks

t trucks = 78 - 54 = 24

Number of trucks = 24

B)

The ratio of trucks to SUVs is 12:21

The total ratio of cars to trucks is

12 + 21 = 33

Let y = sum of trucks and SUVs

There are 24 trucks. Therefore,

x = 24 + s SUVs

Number of trucks = ratio of trucks / total ratio × sum of trucks and SUVs. This means,

24 = 12 / 33 × y

12y / 33 = 24

12y = 24 × 33

12y = 792

y = 792 / 12 = 66

y = 24 + s SUVs

66 = 24 + s SUVs

s SUVs = 66 - 24 = 42

Number of SUVs = 24
