Given that t<span>he science department buys the equipment shown in the table below.

Item                      Time Bought
Microscopes          every 5 years
Safety goggles      every 4 years
Test tubes             every 2 years

Given that they bought all three items this year. The number of years it will take for them to buy all three items again in the same year is given by the LCM of 5, 4, and 2.

5 = 1 x 5
4 = 1 x 2 x 2
2 = 1 x 2

LCM = 1 x 2 x 2 x 5 = 20.

Therefore, they will buy all three items again in 20 years.

Answer:

13.63 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

100 yards / 15 sec  converted to miles per hour

<u>100 yards</u> x <u> 60 sec</u>   x  <u> 60 min</u>   x  <u> 1 mile     </u>    =  13.63 miles/hr

   15 sec        1 min          1 hr           1760 yards

the mistake on Mrs Dukes is the conversion from miles to yards.

1 mile = 1760 yards NOT 5280 yards
