Answer:

20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Car A = every 10 seconds

Car B = every 5 seconds

Car C = every 4 seconds

If they all start to go off at the same time due to a loud clap of thunder, how long will it take until they all sound at the same time again?

To determine how long will it take until they all sound at the same time again, find the lowest common multiples of cars alarm time

Car A (every 10 seconds) = 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90

Car B (every 5 seconds) = 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60

Car C (every 4 seconds) = 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, 36, 40

The lowest common multiples of the cars alarm time is 20 seconds.

Therefore, it will take 20 seconds for they all sound at the same time again

Gaby plays on volleyball team. In the two games she scored 3/5 of the total number of points her team scored. Her team scored 25
hjlf

Answer:

Gaby scored 27 points.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find 3/5 of both of the numbers.

What I did was I found 1/5 of each number and multiplied it by 3.

25/5=5, so 1/5 of 25 is 5. 5(3)= 15, so Gaby scored 15 points in the first game.

20/5= 4, so 1/5 of 20 is 4. 4(3)= 12, so Gaby scored 12 points in the second game.

Finally, add 15+12, which equals 27 :).
