Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason 2 is the Greatest Common Factor of 6 and 8 is because 2 is the only number (other than 1) that you can divide evenly by both numbers  without making a fraction. 6/2= 3 and 8/2= 4.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In general, factor the numbers given into their primes.

6: 2*3

8: 2 * 2 * 2

Take the most you can from the two numbers primes. In this case it is 2.

A slightly more interesting problem is the GCF of 12 and 18

12: 2 * 2 * 3

18: 2 * 3 * 3

Here the two numbers that are common to both factored numbers is 2 and 3

GCF = 2*3

GCF = 6

A circle is a collection of points all of which are on the circumference of the circle.  If you use algebra and (x-h)^2 + (y-k)^2 = r^2 and the info contained in the coordinates (x,y) of each city, you can find h, k and r.  Then r is the (equal) distance between each city and the center of the circle, where the new tower will be built.

Michael received a grant to make a community garden. He makes a scale drawing of his vision for the garden. Michael's drawing sh
Mila [183]

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram to the question attached.

From the diagram, we are given the following dimension for one of the beds;

Length = 16cm

Width = 8cm

If the scale from his drawing to the actual garden is 2 cm for every 1 ft, then on converting to feet;

2cm = 1ft

16cm = x fr

cross multiply

2x = 16

x = 8ft

Hence 16cm = 8ft (based on the scale)

Similarly:

2cm = 1ft

8cm = x fr

cross multiply

2x = 8

x = 4ft

Area of the garden bed (in feet) = Length * Width

Area of the garden bed = 8ft * 4ft

Area of the garden bed = 32ft²

Hence the actual area of one of the garden beds is 32ft². We need to find 2 things fir us to get the required answer. First is the length of the bed in feet and the second is the width of the bed in feet.

Drupady [299]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  Pia drove faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is the ratio of distance to time. If the time is the same, the greater distance is associated with the greater speed.

Pia drove farther in 3 hours, so drove faster.

What is the area of a section of pavement that is 10 ft wide and 70 yd​ long? Give your answer in square feet. I think I have th
Elenna [48]

Answer:

  2100 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

1 yard is 3 ft, so 70 yards is (70 yd)×(3 ft/yd) = 210 feet.

The area of the pavement is the product of its length and width:

  area = (210 ft)(10 ft) = 2100 ft²

_____

If you keep the units with the numbers as I have done here, you find that the product of (10 ft) and (70 yd) does not have the units of ft². Rather, the units are ft·yd, which is <em>not what the problem is asking for</em>.

0.74y=128<br> what is the value of y
Bingel [31]
Y = 172.972972972...

You need to isolate the variable, y. To do this, you need to divide both sides of the equation by 0.74. This gives you your final answer.
