24/42= 4/7 

<span> To start divide both sides by 2  So 24/2=12 and then 42/2=21. So it would then be 12/21. Now both are divisible by 3 so you can divide each side by 3. So 12/3=4 and 21/3=7 so it would be 4/7. You can't-do anything further so that is the lowest term.</span>

What is the largest common factor of both 24 and 42?

24 is divisible (without remainder) by 4, 6, 8 and 24.  42 is divisible by 2, 21, 3, 14,  6, 7.  Your job is to identify the common factor found in each 24 and 42.

6 divides without remainder into both 24 and 42.  

Thus, you have     24        6*4
                             ----  =  -----------
                              42         6*7

Cancel the sixes.  This leaves you with 4/7, which cannot be reduced further.

The average of a list of 4 numbers is 90.0. A new list of 4 numbers has the same first 3 numbers as the original list, but the f
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

the average of this new list of numbers is 94

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To answer this question we will assign a letter to each number for the first list and the second list of numbers, remembering that the last number of the first list is 80 and the last number of the second list is 96

for the first list

\frac{a+b+c+80}{4} =90

for the new list

\frac{a+b+c+96}{4} =X

To solve this problem consider the following

1.X is the average value of the second list

2. We will assign a Y value to the sum of the numbers a, b, c.

a + b + c = Y to create two new equations

for the first list

\frac{y+80}{4} =90

solving  for Y

Y=(90)(4)-80=280

Y=280=a+b+c

for the second list

\frac{y+96}{4} =X\\

\frac{280+96}{4} =X\\x=94

the average of this new list of numbers is 94

Number 2 to 4 I don’t understand it.
Natalka [10]
All estimating problems make the assumption you are familar with your math facts, addition and multiplication. Since students normally memorize multiplication facts for single-digit numbers, any problem that can be simplified to single-digit numbers is easily worked.

2. You are asked to estimate 47.99 times 0.6. The problem statement suggests you do this by multiplying 50 times 0.6. That product is the same as 5 × 6, which is a math fact you have memorized. You know this because
.. 50 × 0.6 = (5 × 10) × (6 × 1/10)
.. = (5 × 6) × (10 ×1/10) . . . . . . . . . . . by the associative property of multiplication
.. = 30 × 1
.. = 30


3. You have not provided any clue as to the procedure reviewed in the lesson. Using a calculator,
.. 47.99 × 0.6 = 28.79 . . . . . . rounded to cents


4. You have to decide if knowing the price is near $30 is sufficient information, or whether you need to know it is precisely $28.79. In my opinion, knowing it is near $30 is good enough, unless I'm having to count pennies for any of several possible reasons.
