In the real world you are not going to have a calculator on you 24/7. Nor will you have a pencil or paper to do longhand. You need to know how to accurately estimate your answers in order to be successful.

The gcf of two numbers less than or equal to 12 is 2. Their LCM is 20.What are the numbers?
bixtya [17]

We know:

LCM(a,\ b)=\dfrac{ab}{GCF(a,\ b)}

We have

GCF(a,\ b)=2,\ LCM(a,\ b)=20,\ a\leq12,\ b\leq12

Substitute:

20=\dfrac{ab}{2}\qquad|\cdot2\\\\ab=40

40=1\cdot40=2\cdot20=4\cdot10=5\cdot8

Only 4 and 10 meet the requirements of the question.

--------------------------------------------------------------------

40 and 1 NOT, because 40 > 12

20 and 2 NOT, because 20 > 12

5 and 8 NOT because GCF(5, 8) = 1

Keisha is walking around a track that is 400 yards long. She has walked around the track 5 times so far. How many more yards doe
anyanavicka [17]
400 yards x 5= 2,000 yards keisha walked. 1 mile equals 1,760 yards. Now to find the 2 miles in yards multiply 1760 x 2= 3,520. So 2 miles equal 3,520 yards. Now subtract 3,520 - 2,000

Which expression has a value of 1/36?
Schach [20]
(1/36) = 0.0277777777778

(1/108)^3 = 7.9383224102<span> x 10^-7 </span>
(1/9)^4 = 0.000152415790276
(1/6)^2 = 0.0277777777778
(1/2)^5 =  <span>0.03125

The only one that matches with the value of 1/36 is (1/6)^2. Therefore, your answer is C. (1/6)^2

miskamm [114]

Answer:

The volume of cube is 125 cm³.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the formule of volume of cube is, V = length×width×height. Cube is a 3D form of square, so the sides of the cube are all the same. You have to substitute 5 into the formula,

Let length be 5 cm,

Let width be 5 cm,

Let height be 5 cm,

Volume = 5×5×5

= 125 cm³
