How do you find the least common multiple of two numbers using prime factorizations?

1 answer:

6 0

Basically you would break down the numbers let's say you start off with 48, 8 times 6 gives you 48 what can go into 8, 2 and 4 then you say what can go into 4 which is 2 and 2 then break down 6, 3 an 2 basically you break it down all the way until you get the prime numbers

William fills 1/3 of a water bottle in 5/9 of a minute. How many can be filled in a minute

Snezhnost [94]

For this case we can propose a rule of three:

$\frac {1} {3}$ bottle ------------> $\frac {5} {9}$ minutes

x --------------------------------------> 1 minute

Where the variable "x" represents the number of bottles that can be filled in 1 minute.

$x = \frac {1 * \frac {1} {3}} {\frac {5} {9}}\\x = \frac {\frac {1} {3}} {\frac {5} {9}}\\x = \frac {9 * 1} {3 * 5}\\x = \frac {9} {15}\\x = \frac {3} {5}$

Thus, William can fill $\frac {3} {5}$ of a water bottle in 1 minute.

Answer:

William can fill $\frac {3} {5}$ of a water bottle in 1 minute.
