Let's begin by breaking each number down into its prime factors: 4 = 2 x 2 5 = 5 6 = 2 x 3 Next, let's determine the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) of the numbers 4, 5, and 6 by multiplying all common and unique prime factors of each number: common prime factors: 2 unique prime factors: 2,5,3 LCM = 2 x 2 x 5 x 3 = 60 Next, let's determine how many times 60 goes into 10,000 (excluding remainder): 10,000/60 = 166 and 2/3 Multiples of ALL 3 numbers (4,5,6) = 166 Next, let's determine the Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) of the numbers 4 and 5 by multiplying all common and unique prime factors of each number: common prime factors: none
unique prime factors: 2 x 2 x 5
LCM = 2 x 2 x 5 = 20 Next, let's determine how many times 20 goes into 10,000:
10,000/20 = 500
Multiples of BOTH numbers (4 and 5) = 500 Finally, let's subtract the multiples of ALL three numbers (4,5,6) from the multiples of BOTH numbers (4 and 5) to get our answer: Multiples of ONLY numbers 4 and 5 (excluding 6): 500 - 166 = <span>334</span>
Area of the shaded region to be covered with grass is 204 yd²
Step-by-step explanation:
- Step 1: Area of the shaded region can be found by finding the total area and subtracting the area of the lap pool.
Total area = Area of the trapezium = 1/2 × (Sum of parallel sides) × distance between them
Sum of parallel sides = 25 yd + (3 + 12) = 40 yd
Distance between them = 12 yd
⇒ Total area = 1/2 × 40 × 12 = 240 yd²
- Step 2: Find the area of the lap pool.
Area = length × width = 12 × 3 = 36 yd²
- Step 3: Find the area of the shaded region
Area to be covered with grass = 240 - 36 = 204 yd²

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The direct proportion equation is ...
y = kx
where k is the constant of proportionality. Here, you're told k=-2, so the equation is ...
y = -2x
For x=8, the value of y is ...
y = -2(8) = -16 . . . . . do the multiplication
For y = -20, the value of x is ...
-20 = -2x
10 = x . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by -2
